• Message number: 032

• Message text: System is not configured for field exits (see long text)

What causes this issue?

System Response

The profile parameter abap/fieldexit is set to YES during screen
generation. A screen load is generated that allows you to branch to
field exits.
This parameter may only be set in the customer system.
<ZH>Note:</> If the parameter has been set, you must check that, for
each field, the system branches to the correct corresponding function
module during screen generation. For performance reasons, you should
not set this parameter during generation unless field exits have
actually been created for your system.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Set the abap/fieldexit parameter to YES in the system profile and
restart your SAP system.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ENHANCEMENT032 - System is not configured for field exits (see long text) ?

  The SAP error message ENHANCEMENT032 indicates that the system is not configured to handle field exits. Field exits are a way to implement custom logic for specific fields in SAP screens, allowing for additional validation or processing when a user interacts with those fields. This error typically arises when a field exit is expected to be executed, but the system is not set up to support it.
  Cause:
  
  Field Exit Not Defined: The field exit for the specific field has not been defined in the system.
  Configuration Issues: The system may not be configured to use field exits, or the necessary enhancements are not activated.
  Missing Enhancements: The enhancement that contains the field exit is not implemented or activated in the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Field Exit Definition:
  
  Go to transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) and check if the field exit is defined for the specific field.
  If it is not defined, you may need to create a field exit using transaction code SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE37 (Function Module).
  
  
  
  Activate Enhancements:
  
  Use transaction code SE84 (Repository Information System) to check if the necessary enhancements are activated.
  If the enhancement is not active, you may need to activate it.
  
  
  
  Implement Field Exit:
  
  If you have the necessary authorizations, you can implement the field exit logic in the appropriate function module.
  Ensure that the logic is correctly implemented and that it does not conflict with other enhancements or standard SAP functionality.
  
  
  
  Check for Notes and Patches:
  
  Sometimes, SAP releases notes or patches that address specific issues related to field exits. Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation for field exits to ensure that you are following the correct procedures for implementation and configuration.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Field Exits: These are enhancements that allow you to add custom logic to standard SAP fields. They are defined in function modules and can be used to validate or modify field values.
  Enhancement Framework: SAP provides an enhancement framework that allows developers to add custom functionality without modifying the standard code.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SE11: Data Dictionary
  SE80: Object Navigator
