  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SPRX402 - SPROXY/DDIC: Structure &1 Field &2 does not exist in DDIC ?

    The SAP error message SPRX402 indicates that there is an issue with a structure or field in the Data Dictionary (DDIC) that is being referenced in a proxy or service interface. Specifically, the error message states that a certain field in a specified structure does not exist in the DDIC. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when working with SAP Process Integration (PI) or SAP Process Orchestration (PO).

    Cause

    The error can be caused by several factors:

    1. Field or Structure Deletion: The field or structure may have been deleted or renamed in the DDIC.
    2. Transport Issues: If the structure or field was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or may be missing.
    3. Incorrect Mapping: The mapping in the proxy or service interface may be incorrect, referencing a field that does not exist.
    4. Version Mismatch: There may be a version mismatch between the proxy and the underlying data structure.
    5. Development Environment Issues: If you are working in a development environment, the structure may not be activated or may not exist in the current client.

    Solution

    To resolve the SPRX402 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check the DDIC:

      • Go to transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) and check if the specified structure and field exist.
      • If they do not exist, you may need to create them or adjust your proxy to reference the correct structure and field.
    2. Verify Transport Requests:

      • If the structure was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that it was successfully imported.
      • If necessary, re-transport the relevant objects.
    3. Update Proxy Mapping:

      • If the mapping in the proxy is incorrect, update it to reference the correct structure and field.

    4. Activate Objects:

      • Ensure that all relevant objects (structures, fields, proxies) are activated in the system.
      • You can activate objects in SE11 or SE80.
    5. Check for Versioning:

      • Ensure that the version of the proxy you are using is compatible with the version of the structure in the DDIC.
    6. Consult Documentation:

      • Review any relevant documentation or notes from SAP that may provide additional context or solutions for this error.
