  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_CST111 - Active plan version = & ?

    The SAP error message SWF_CST111, which states "Active plan version = &", typically relates to issues with the workflow or the plan version in the SAP system. This error can occur in various contexts, often when there is a mismatch or inconsistency in the workflow configuration or when the system is unable to find the active version of a workflow plan.

    Cause:

    1. Inactive Plan Version: The active plan version may not be correctly set or may be inactive.
    2. Version Mismatch: There may be a mismatch between the expected version of the workflow and the version that is currently active.
    3. Configuration Issues: There could be issues in the configuration of the workflow or the underlying business process.
    4. Transport Issues: If the workflow was transported from one system to another, the active version may not have been properly activated in the target system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Active Plan Version:

      • Go to the transaction code SWI1 (Work Item Selection) or SWI2_FREQ (Work Item Selection - Frequency) to check the active plan version.
      • Ensure that the correct version is active and that it is not marked as inactive.
    2. Activate the Plan Version:

      • If the plan version is inactive, you can activate it using transaction code SWDD (Workflow Builder).
      • Navigate to the relevant workflow and activate the required version.

      • Check the workflow configuration for any inconsistencies or errors.
      • Ensure that all necessary steps and conditions are correctly defined.

      • Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific workflow you are working with for any known issues or additional troubleshooting steps.
