  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOI1340 - #NAME? ?

    The SAP error message SOI1340 with the description #NAME? typically indicates that there is an issue with a formula or function in a spreadsheet, particularly when using SAP's integration with Excel or when dealing with SAP BusinessObjects or similar tools that involve data manipulation in Excel.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Function Name: The formula may contain a function name that Excel does not recognize, possibly due to a typo or an unsupported function.
    2. Missing Add-ins: If the formula relies on specific Excel add-ins that are not installed or enabled, it can lead to this error.
    3. Incorrect Cell References: The formula may reference cells or ranges that do not exist or are incorrectly specified.
    4. Localization Issues: If the Excel version is in a different language, function names may differ, leading to recognition issues.
    5. Data Source Issues: If the data source for the formula is not available or has been changed, it can cause the formula to fail.

    1. Check Formula Syntax: Review the formula for any typos or incorrect function names. Ensure that all functions used are valid in Excel.
    2. Enable Required Add-ins: If the formula requires specific Excel add-ins, ensure they are installed and enabled.
    3. Verify Cell References: Check that all cell references in the formula are correct and that the referenced cells exist.
    4. Use English Function Names: If you are using a non-English version of Excel, try using the English names for functions to see if that resolves the issue.
    5. Check Data Connections: Ensure that any data connections or sources used in the formula are active and correctly configured.

    Related Information:

    • Excel Documentation: Refer to Microsoft Excel's official documentation for a list of functions and their correct usage.
