• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOS_MAPPING116 - No active version of the mapping exists ?

  The SAP error message SOS_MAPPING116, which states "No active version of the mapping exists," typically occurs in the context of SAP Process Integration (PI) or SAP Process Orchestration (PO) when there is an issue with the mapping configuration. This error indicates that the system cannot find an active version of the specified mapping object that is required for processing messages.
  Causes:
  
  Inactive Mapping Version: The mapping object may exist, but it is not activated. In SAP PI/PO, mappings must be activated to be used in message processing.
  Missing Mapping: The mapping object may not exist at all in the system, or it may have been deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: The sender or receiver agreement may be incorrectly configured, pointing to a mapping that does not exist or is inactive.
  Transport Issues: If the mapping was transported from another system, it may not have been activated in the target system.
  Versioning Issues: There may be multiple versions of the mapping, and the system is unable to find the correct active version.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Activate the Mapping:
  
  Go to the Integration Builder (Enterprise Services Builder).
  Navigate to the relevant mapping object (e.g., Message Mapping, Operation Mapping).
  Check if the mapping is inactive and activate it.
  
  
  
  Check Mapping Existence:
  
  Ensure that the mapping object exists in the system. If it does not, you may need to create it or transport it from another system.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the sender and receiver agreements in the Integration Directory to ensure they are correctly configured to use the appropriate mapping.
  Verify that the correct mapping is assigned to the communication channel.
  
  
  
  Transport and Activation:
  
  If the mapping was transported, ensure that it has been activated in the target system.
  Check the transport logs for any errors related to the mapping.
  
  
  
  Version Management:
  
  If there are multiple versions of the mapping, ensure that the correct version is set as active. You can do this in the Integration Builder by selecting the appropriate version.
