How To Fix SWDP_WB_TOOL117 - Parameter synchronization cannot be executed

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SWDP_WB_TOOL - Web Dynpro: Messages for Workbench Tools

• Message number: 117

• Message text: Parameter synchronization cannot be executed

What causes this issue?

A parameter comparison between event handler and event is only possible
for handlers belonging to user-defined events. This comparison is
necessary whenever the parameters of the assigned, user-defined event
have been changed.
Restriction: For event handlers that were created in an enhancement
implementation, the parameter comparison can only be run in the
enhancement mode.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

A parameter comparison is not required for event handlers of actions and
inbound plugs because the parameters of these always match those of the
action or inbound plug concerned.

System Response

The parameter comparison was not executed.
