  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_PUSH_NOTIF1055 - Original version '&' does not exist for workflow & ?

    The SAP error message SWF_PUSH_NOTIF1055 indicates that the original version of a workflow does not exist for the specified workflow ID. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Workflow when the system is trying to push notifications related to a workflow instance, but it cannot find the original version of the workflow definition.

    Cause:

    1. Workflow Version Deletion: The original version of the workflow may have been deleted or not activated. This can happen if the workflow definition was modified and the previous version was removed.
    2. Transport Issues: If the workflow was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the original version may not have been included in the transport request.
    3. Incorrect Workflow ID: The workflow ID being referenced may be incorrect or may not correspond to an existing workflow definition.
    4. Repository Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the workflow repository or database that prevent the system from locating the original version.

    Solution:

    1. Check Workflow Definition: Verify that the workflow definition exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the workflow definition in the SAP GUI (transaction code SWDD) and checking if the original version is available and active.
    2. Re-activate Workflow: If the workflow definition exists but is not active, try reactivating it. This can sometimes resolve issues related to versioning.
    3. Transport Check: If the workflow was recently transported, ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport the workflow definition.
    4. Check Workflow ID: Ensure that the workflow ID being referenced in the error message is correct. You can cross-check it against the workflow definitions in the system.
    5. Database Consistency: If you suspect database inconsistencies, you may need to run consistency checks or consult with your SAP Basis team to ensure that the workflow repository is intact.
    6. Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
