    System Response

    If the form does not exist in the specified language in the current
    client, the form which was used for printing is displayed by accessing
    another client. The search is thus graded as follows:
    Current client, form in specified language, status irrelevant
    Current client, form in original language, status active
    Client '000', form in specified language, status active
    Client '000', form in original language, status active

    How to fix this error?

    You can obtain a list of the form available in the current client using
    the function 'Find' in the initial screen of the form maintenance. Here
    you can also output a list of the forms in your current client or
    another client, using the menu option <ZG><NP>'Utilities -> Client
    comparison'</></>.

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TD131 - Form &1 language &2 does not exist in client &3 ?

    The SAP error message TD131 indicates that a specific form (identified by &1) in a particular language (identified by &2) does not exist in the specified client (identified by &3). This error typically occurs when trying to print or display a form that has not been properly configured or is missing in the specified language for the client.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Form: The form you are trying to access has not been created or is not available in the specified language.
    2. Incorrect Language Settings: The language settings in the user profile or the client configuration may not match the language of the form.
    3. Client-Specific Configuration: The form may exist in other clients but not in the one you are currently using.
    4. Transport Issues: If the form was recently transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly or completely.

    Solution:

    1. Check Form Existence:

      • Go to transaction code SMARTFORMS or SE71 (for SAPscript) and check if the form exists in the specified language.
      • If it does not exist, you may need to create it or copy it from another language.
