• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRT_WSP2720 - Actor '&1' is not defined in Semantic Contract '&2' ?

  The SAP error message SRT_WSP2720 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a semantic contract in the SAP system. Specifically, it means that the actor (service provider or consumer) specified in the semantic contract is not defined or recognized in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Actor Definition: The actor specified in the semantic contract is not defined in the system. This could happen if the actor was not created or if there was a typo in the actor name.
  Incorrect Configuration: The semantic contract may be incorrectly configured, leading to a mismatch between the expected actor and the defined actors.
  Transport Issues: If the semantic contract was transported from one system to another, the actor definitions may not have been included in the transport request.
  Changes in System: If there have been recent changes in the system, such as updates or migrations, the actor definitions may have been affected.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Actor Definition:
  
  Go to the transaction code SOAMANAGER in your SAP system.
  Navigate to the "Web Service Configuration" section and check if the actor is defined correctly.
  If the actor is missing, you will need to create it.
  
  
  
  Verify Semantic Contract:
  
  In the same SOAMANAGER transaction, check the semantic contract configuration.
  Ensure that the actor specified in the contract matches the defined actor in the system.
  
  
  
  Create or Update Actor:
  
  If the actor is not defined, create a new actor with the required details.
  If the actor exists but is not correctly configured, update the actor's details to match the requirements of the semantic contract.
  
  
  
  Transport Considerations:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects, including actor definitions, were included in the transport request.
  If needed, re-transport the missing definitions.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error is resolved.
