• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABR_PM_ERRORS211 - Switch case statement contains no case for current case ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ABR_PM_ERRORS211 indicating that "Switch case statement contains no case for current case" typically arises in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when using a CASE statement. This error suggests that the value being evaluated in the CASE statement does not match any of the defined WHEN conditions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Case: The value being evaluated does not have a corresponding WHEN clause in the CASE statement.
  Incorrect Value: The value being passed to the CASE statement may be incorrect or unexpected, leading to no matches.
  Data Type Mismatch: There may be a mismatch in data types between the evaluated expression and the WHEN conditions.
  Logic Error: There could be a logical error in the code that leads to an unexpected value being evaluated.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the CASE Statement: Review the CASE statement to ensure that all possible values of the evaluated expression are covered by WHEN clauses.
  CASE <expression>.
    WHEN <value1>.
      " code for value1
    WHEN <value2>.
      " code for value2
    ...
    WHEN OTHERS.
      " code for all other cases
  ENDCASE.
  Ensure that you have a WHEN OTHERS clause to handle unexpected values.
  
  
  Validate Input Values: Ensure that the input values being passed to the CASE statement are valid and expected. You may want to add logging or debugging to see what values are being evaluated.
  
  
  Data Type Consistency: Ensure that the data types of the evaluated expression and the WHEN conditions are consistent. If necessary, perform type conversions.
  
  
  Add Default Handling: If there are cases that are not covered, consider adding a default handling mechanism using WHEN OTHERS to manage unexpected cases gracefully.
  
  
  Debugging: Use debugging tools in SAP to step through the code and observe the values being processed. This can help identify where the logic is failing.
