• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE523 - System error: No texts in table &1 in language &2 ?

  The SAP error message KE523 ("System error: No texts in table &1 in language &2") typically indicates that the system is trying to access text entries in a specific table for a particular language, but it cannot find any entries. This can occur in various contexts, such as when dealing with cost center accounting, internal orders, or other controlling-related functionalities.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Text Entries: The most common cause is that the required text entries for the specified table and language do not exist in the database.
  Incorrect Language Settings: The language settings in the user profile or the system configuration may not match the available texts in the database.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as incomplete data migration or updates that did not include all necessary text entries.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Text Entries:
  
  Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the relevant table (indicated by &1 in the error message) for the existence of text entries in the specified language (indicated by &2).
  If the entries are missing, you may need to create them manually or import them from a transport request if they exist in another system.
  
  
  
  Language Settings:
  
  Verify the language settings in your user profile. You can check this in the user settings (transaction SU01) or by looking at the language parameter in your SAP GUI.
  Ensure that the language you are using is supported and that the necessary texts are available in that language.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  If you suspect data inconsistency, you may need to run consistency checks or data validation programs specific to the module you are working with.
  Consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to perform a thorough check of the database and application logs for any related issues.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the texts are missing due to a recent transport or upgrade, check if the transport requests that should have included these texts were successfully imported.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific module you are working with for any known issues or additional troubleshooting steps.
