  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IDOC_ADAPTER154 - Port &1 Client &2: IDoc &3 does not contain an IDoc type or CIM type ?

    The SAP error message IDOC_ADAPTER154 indicates that an IDoc (Intermediate Document) being processed does not contain a valid IDoc type or CIM (Common Information Model) type. This error typically occurs during the processing of IDocs in the SAP system, particularly when the system is trying to send or receive IDocs.

    Cause:

    1. Missing IDoc Type: The IDoc being processed does not have an associated IDoc type defined in the system. This can happen if the IDoc was not properly generated or if there is a configuration issue.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The port configuration for the IDoc may not be set up correctly, leading to the system being unable to identify the IDoc type.
    3. Data Issues: The data being sent may not conform to the expected structure, leading to the IDoc being considered invalid.
    4. Transport Issues: If the IDoc is being sent from one system to another, there may be issues with the transport layer that prevent the IDoc from being recognized correctly.

    Solution:

    1. Check IDoc Type: Verify that the IDoc being processed has a valid IDoc type. You can do this by checking the IDoc in transaction WE02 or WE05.
    2. Review Port Configuration: Ensure that the port configuration in transaction WE21 is correct. Check that the port is properly defined and that it is associated with the correct logical system.
    3. Validate IDoc Structure: Use transaction WE30 to check the structure of the IDoc type and ensure that it is correctly defined and active.
    4. Check for Data Issues: Review the data being sent in the IDoc to ensure it adheres to the expected format and structure. Look for any missing mandatory fields or incorrect data types.
    5. Monitor System Logs: Check the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
    6. Reprocess IDoc: If the IDoc is found to be invalid, you may need to correct the data and reprocess the IDoc.
