The SAP error message
CRM_EDR_MESSAGES054
indicates that a required field is not being provided by the XI (Exchange Infrastructure) during the data exchange process. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP CRM (Customer Relationship Management) when integrating with other systems via SAP PI/PO (Process Integration/Process Orchestration) or other middleware solutions.Cause:
The error is caused by the absence of a mandatory field in the message being sent from the XI/PI system to the SAP CRM system. This could happen due to several reasons:
- Mapping Issues: The mapping configuration in the middleware may not be correctly set up to include the required field.
- Data Transformation: During the transformation of data, the required field may be omitted or incorrectly transformed.
- Message Structure: The structure of the incoming message may not match the expected structure in SAP CRM, leading to missing fields.
- Configuration Errors: There may be configuration errors in the integration scenario that prevent the required data from being sent.
Solution:
To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
Identify the Missing Field: Check the error message for the specific field that is indicated as missing (represented by
&1
). This will give you a clue about what data is required.Review Mapping Configuration:
- Go to the mapping configuration in your middleware (SAP PI/PO).
- Ensure that the required field is included in the mapping from the source system to the target system (SAP CRM).
- If necessary, adjust the mapping to ensure that the required field is populated.
Check Data Transformation Logic:
- If you are using any transformation logic (like XSLT or graphical mapping), ensure that the logic correctly handles the required field and does not omit it.
Validate Message Structure:
- Ensure that the message structure being sent from the XI/PI system matches the expected structure in SAP CRM.
- You can use tools like the SAP PI/PO message monitoring to inspect the messages being sent and verify their structure.
Test the Integration: After making the necessary adjustments, test the integration scenario to ensure that the required field is now being sent correctly.
Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the required fields for a specific process, consult the SAP documentation or the relevant functional specifications for the integration scenario.
Engage with Technical Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support or your technical team for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
