SWF_XI_ADM061
- Step already executed successfully ?The SAP error message SWF_XI_ADM061, which states "Step already executed successfully," typically occurs in the context of workflow management in SAP systems. This error indicates that a particular step in a workflow has already been executed successfully, and the system is attempting to execute it again, which is not allowed.
Cause:
- Duplicate Execution: The workflow step is designed to be executed only once, and the system is trying to execute it again due to a re-triggering of the workflow or a manual restart.
- Workflow Logic: There may be an issue in the workflow design where the logic does not properly handle the state of the workflow steps.
- Error Handling: If there is an error in a previous step that was not handled correctly, it might cause the workflow to attempt to re-execute a step that has already been completed.
Solution:
- Check Workflow Instance: Review the workflow instance to determine the status of the steps. You can use transaction code SWI1 (Work Item Selection) to analyze the workflow instance and see which steps have been executed.
- Review Workflow Logic: If you have access to the workflow definition, check the logic to ensure that steps are not being incorrectly re-triggered. You may need to adjust the conditions or events that lead to the execution of the step.
- Error Handling: Implement proper error handling in the workflow to manage situations where a step might fail or need to be retried without causing duplicate executions.
- Manual Intervention: If necessary, you may need to manually complete or terminate the workflow instance to clear the error. This can be done using transaction SWIA (Workflow Administration).
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific workflow you are working with for any known issues or additional troubleshooting steps.
Related Information:
