  The SAP error message DEND_PREP009 indicates that during a test run, no commodity curve values were written to the database. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Commodity Management or similar modules where commodity curves are used for pricing, forecasting, or other analytical purposes.
  Causes:
  
  
  Missing Data: The most common cause is that the necessary data for generating the commodity curve is missing or incomplete. This could include missing parameters, incorrect configuration, or lack of historical data.
  
  
  Test Run Configuration: If the system is set to run in test mode, it may not write any data to the database. This is intended to allow users to validate the process without making permanent changes.
  
  
  Errors in Calculation Logic: There may be issues in the underlying logic or formulas used to calculate the commodity curve values, leading to no output being generated.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the process may not have the necessary authorizations to write data to the database.
  
  
  Technical Issues: There could be technical issues such as database connectivity problems, or issues with the SAP application server.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Data Completeness: Ensure that all required data for the commodity curve is present and correctly configured. This includes checking the input parameters and historical data.
  
  
  Review Test Run Settings: If you are running a test, verify that the settings are correct and that you are aware that no data will be written during a test run. If you want to write data, switch to a production run.
  
  
  Debugging: If you suspect an issue with the calculation logic, consider debugging the process to identify where it might be failing. This may require technical expertise.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary permissions to execute the process and write to the database.
  
  
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that could provide more context about the failure.
