  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message P99B107 - No text defined for subtype & ?

    The SAP error message P99B107 "No text defined for subtype &" typically occurs when the system is trying to access a text or description for a specific subtype that has not been defined in the system. This can happen in various contexts, such as when working with document types, business processes, or custom developments.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Text Entries: The subtype in question does not have any associated text entries in the relevant configuration tables.
    2. Configuration Issues: The subtype may not be properly configured in the system, leading to the absence of a corresponding text.
    3. Custom Development: If the subtype is part of a custom development or enhancement, it may not have been fully implemented or documented.

    Solution:

    1. Check Text Definitions:

      • Navigate to the relevant configuration area in SAP where text definitions are maintained (e.g., transaction codes like SE11 for data dictionary, SE78 for SAPscript forms, etc.).
      • Look for the specific subtype and verify if a text entry exists. If not, create a new text entry for that subtype.
    2. Maintain Texts:

      • Use transaction codes like SO10 (Text Management) to create or maintain texts for the subtype.
      • Ensure that the language settings are correct and that the text is available in the required language.
    3. Review Configuration:

      • Check the configuration settings for the relevant module (e.g., Sales and Distribution, Materials Management) to ensure that the subtype is correctly defined and linked to the appropriate texts.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • If the subtype is part of a custom development, consult the development documentation or reach out to the developer to ensure that the text handling is correctly implemented.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes, test the functionality again to ensure that the error message no longer appears.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for text maintenance and configuration.

    • User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify text entries in the system.
    • Language Settings: Be aware of the language settings in your SAP system, as texts are often language-dependent.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or functional team for further investigation.
