  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_SE_SEARCH014 - Error during INSERT: Table &1, Key = &2 &3 &4 ?

    The SAP error message COM_SE_SEARCH014 typically indicates that there was an error during an INSERT operation into a database table. The message provides specific details about the table and the key values involved in the operation. Here’s a breakdown of the components of the error message and potential solutions:

    Cause

    1. Database Constraints: The error may occur due to violation of database constraints such as primary key, foreign key, or unique constraints. If you are trying to insert a record with a key that already exists in the table, this will trigger an error.

    2. Data Type Mismatch: If the data being inserted does not match the expected data types of the table fields, this can lead to an error.

    3. Missing Required Fields: If the INSERT operation is missing required fields that are defined in the database schema, it can cause the operation to fail.

    4. Locking Issues: If the table is locked by another transaction, it may prevent the INSERT operation from completing.

    5. Database Connection Issues: Problems with the database connection or configuration can also lead to errors during data manipulation operations.

    Solution

    1. Check for Existing Records: Verify if the key values you are trying to insert already exist in the table. If they do, you may need to update the existing record instead of inserting a new one.

    2. Review Data Types: Ensure that the data being inserted matches the expected data types for each field in the table.

    3. Provide Required Fields: Make sure that all required fields are included in the INSERT statement.

    4. Check for Locks: Investigate if the table is locked by another transaction. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.

    5. Database Logs: Review the database logs for more detailed error messages that can provide additional context about the failure.

    6. Transaction Management: Ensure that your transaction management is correctly implemented, especially if you are using multiple database operations in a single transaction.

    7. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to the specific table and operation you are performing for any known issues or additional guidance.

    Related Information

    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the structure of the table and constraints.
    • Debugging: If you have access to debugging tools, you can set breakpoints in the relevant ABAP code to analyze the data being processed at the time of the error.
    • SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to the specific error message or the table in question for any patches or updates that may resolve the issue.

    If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, consider reaching out to your SAP Basis or development team for further assistance.
