  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /FTI/AUTHORING_ERROR039 - Data element '&1' has no domain assigned. ?

    The SAP error message /FTI/AUTHORING_ERROR039 indicates that a data element in your SAP system does not have a domain assigned to it. This can occur in various contexts, particularly when working with the SAP Fiori or SAP UI5 applications, where data elements are used to define the structure of data being processed.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Domain Assignment: The data element specified in the error message (&1) does not have a domain assigned to it. A domain defines the technical attributes of a data element, such as its data type, length, and value range.
    2. Custom Development: If the data element is part of a custom development or enhancement, it may not have been properly defined in the ABAP Dictionary.
    3. Transport Issues: If the data element was recently transported from another system, there may have been an issue during the transport process that caused the domain assignment to be lost.

    Solution:

    1. Check Data Element Definition:

      • Go to transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary).
      • Enter the name of the data element that is causing the error.
      • Check if a domain is assigned to the data element. If not, you will need to assign a domain.
    2. Assign a Domain:

      • If the data element is missing a domain, you can create a new domain or assign an existing one that fits the requirements of the data element.
      • Ensure that the domain has the correct data type and length that matches the intended use of the data element.
    3. Review Custom Code:

      • If the data element is part of custom code, review the code to ensure that it is correctly referencing the data element and that the data element is properly defined in the ABAP Dictionary.
    4. Transport Check:

      • If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings related to the data element or domain.
      • If necessary, re-transport the object or manually correct the issue in the target system.
    5. Testing:

      • After making the necessary changes, test the application or process that was generating the error to ensure that the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • ABAP Dictionary: The ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11) is where you can manage data elements, domains, tables, views, and other data structures in SAP.
    • Data Element: A data element is a definition that describes the type of data that can be stored in a field, including its semantics and technical attributes.
    • Domain: A domain defines the technical properties of a data element, such as data type, length, and value range.

    If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP Basis or development team for further assistance, as they may have more context on the specific implementation and configuration of your SAP system.
