  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PU168 - Dynpro &1 &2 was generated ?

    The SAP error message PU168 indicates that a Dynpro (dynamic program) was generated for a specific screen in the SAP system. This message typically arises during the development or modification of SAP programs, particularly when there are changes made to the screen layout or when a screen is being created or modified in the Screen Painter.

    Cause:

    1. Screen Changes: The error can occur when there are changes made to the screen layout or when a new screen is created, and the system needs to regenerate the Dynpro.
    2. Transport Issues: If the screen changes are part of a transport request and the transport has not been properly imported into the target system, it may lead to this error.
    3. Development Environment: The error may also occur in a development environment where the screen has not been activated or saved properly.

    Solution:

    1. Activate the Screen: Ensure that the screen is activated in the Screen Painter. You can do this by navigating to the screen in the ABAP Workbench (SE80) and activating it.
    2. Check Transport Requests: If the changes were made in a development environment, ensure that the transport request containing the changes has been properly released and imported into the target system.
    3. Regenerate the Program: If the error persists, try regenerating the program associated with the Dynpro. This can be done by going to the program in the ABAP Workbench and selecting the option to regenerate.
    4. Check for Syntax Errors: Ensure that there are no syntax errors in the associated ABAP code that could prevent the screen from being generated correctly.
    5. Clear Buffer: Sometimes, clearing the SAP buffer can help resolve issues related to screen generation. You can do this by using transaction code SM12 to delete any locks and SM21 to check the system log for any related errors.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SE80: Object Navigator (for accessing programs and screens)
      • SE41: Menu Painter (for menu-related issues)
      • SE93: Transaction Codes (to check if the transaction is correctly defined)
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to Dynpro generation.
    • Debugging: If the issue is complex, consider using the debugger to trace the execution and identify where the problem occurs.

    If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
