  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABB_MESSAGES893 - The context transferred with GET BADI must not be initial ?

    The SAP error message /PM0/ABB_MESSAGES893 indicates that there is an issue with the context being passed to a BAdI (Business Add-In) implementation. Specifically, the error states that the context transferred with the GET BADI method must not be initial, meaning that the context variable is empty or not properly initialized when the BAdI is being called.

    Cause:

    1. Uninitialized Context: The context variable that is supposed to be passed to the BAdI is not initialized or is set to an initial value (e.g., empty or null).
    2. Incorrect Logic: There may be a logical error in the code where the context is expected to be populated but is not due to certain conditions not being met.
    3. Configuration Issues: The BAdI implementation may not be correctly configured, leading to the context not being set as expected.
    4. Data Flow Issues: The data flow leading to the BAdI call may not be providing the necessary context due to missing or incorrect data.

    Solution:

    1. Check Initialization: Ensure that the context variable is properly initialized before the GET BADI call. You can add checks to confirm that the context is not initial.
    2. Debugging: Use debugging tools to step through the code and identify where the context is being set and why it might be empty at the time of the BAdI call.
    3. Review Logic: Review the logic that populates the context to ensure that it is executed correctly and that all necessary conditions are met.
    4. BAdI Implementation: Check the BAdI implementation to ensure that it is correctly defined and that the interface is being used as intended.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific BAdI to understand the expected context and how it should be populated.

    Related Information:

    • BAdI (Business Add-In): A BAdI is a type of enhancement in SAP that allows developers to add custom functionality to standard SAP applications without modifying the original code.
    • GET BADI: This is a method used to retrieve the BAdI implementation based on the context provided. It is essential that the context is correctly populated to ensure the right implementation is called.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance on the BAdI in question.
    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE18 (for BAdI definitions) and SE19 (for BAdI implementations) to review and manage BAdI configurations.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
