Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PF1/MSG_SLA035 - BAPI was executed in test mode; SLA was not created in the SLA database ?

  The SAP error message /PF1/MSG_SLA035 indicates that a BAPI (Business Application Programming Interface) was executed in test mode, which means that the system did not actually create a Service Level Agreement (SLA) in the SLA database. This is a common scenario when testing or simulating processes in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Test Mode Execution: The BAPI was called with a parameter that specifies it should run in test mode. In this mode, the system simulates the execution of the BAPI without making any changes to the database.
  Configuration Settings: The system might be configured to run certain BAPIs in test mode by default, especially in development or testing environments.
  User Input: The user or the calling program may have explicitly set the BAPI to run in test mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check BAPI Parameters: Review the parameters being passed to the BAPI. Ensure that the parameter indicating test mode is set to false or is not set at all.
  Change Execution Mode: If you are executing the BAPI through a custom program or transaction, modify the code to execute the BAPI in production mode instead of test mode.
  Review Configuration: If the BAPI is being called from a standard SAP transaction, check if there are any configuration settings that enforce test mode execution.
  Testing Environment: If you are in a testing environment and want to create SLAs, ensure that you switch to a production-like environment or change the settings to allow for actual data creation.
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAPI Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific BAPI you are using to understand its parameters and execution modes.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this issue or provide additional context.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to SLA management, such as SLAC (Service Level Agreement) or SLA1 (SLA Overview), to better understand the context of the error.
  Debugging: If you have access to debugging tools, you can step through the BAPI execution to see where the test mode is being set.
  
  By addressing the execution mode and ensuring that the BAPI is called correctly, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully create SLAs in the database.
