Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SIC_FM_CONFIG105 - Sum of weights for nodes of profile &1 should be 1. Actual value is &2. ?

  The SAP error message SIC_FM_CONFIG105 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a profile in the SAP system, specifically related to the weights assigned to nodes within that profile. The error message states that the sum of the weights for the nodes should equal 1, but the actual sum is different (in this case, it is indicated as &2).
  Cause:
  The error typically arises from one of the following reasons:
  
  Incorrect Weight Configuration: The weights assigned to the nodes in the profile do not sum up to 1. This can happen if weights are incorrectly assigned or if nodes are added or removed without adjusting the weights accordingly.
  Profile Changes: If changes were made to the profile (e.g., adding new nodes or modifying existing ones) without recalculating the weights, this can lead to discrepancies.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors when configuring the weights can also lead to this issue.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Profile Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code for the relevant configuration (usually SICF or similar).
  Locate the profile indicated in the error message (replace &1 with the actual profile name).
  Review the weights assigned to each node in the profile.
  
  
  
  Adjust Weights:
  
  Ensure that the sum of the weights for all nodes in the profile equals 1. You may need to adjust the weights of existing nodes or redistribute them if new nodes have been added.
  If you have added new nodes, ensure that their weights are set appropriately to maintain the total sum of 1.
  
  
  
  Validate Changes:
  
  After making adjustments, validate the configuration to ensure that the error message no longer appears.
  Test the functionality that relies on this profile to ensure that it operates as expected.
