  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VH118 - There is no entry in the table EWUKEYS ?

    SAP Error Message:
    VH118 - There is no entry in the table EWUKEYS


    Cause:

    The error message VH118 occurs when the system tries to find a corresponding entry in the table EWUKEYS but fails to do so. The table EWUKEYS is used in SAP Vehicle Management System (VMS) or Vehicle Handling (VH) components to store key mapping information related to vehicle master data or vehicle handling processes.

    This typically happens when:

    • The vehicle key or related key data is missing or not maintained in the system.
    • The integration or data transfer between vehicle master data and related tables is incomplete or inconsistent.
    • Custom developments or interfaces that rely on this table are trying to access non-existing keys.
    • The vehicle master data has not been properly created or updated.

    Solution:

    To resolve the VH118 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check Vehicle Master Data:

      • Verify that the vehicle master record exists and is correctly maintained.
      • Use transaction codes like IE02 (Change Equipment) or IH01 (Display Vehicle) to check the vehicle data.
    2. Check Table EWUKEYS:

      • Use transaction SE16N or SE11 to view the contents of table EWUKEYS.
      • Search for the key that the system is trying to find. If it is missing, this confirms the cause.
    3. Recreate or Maintain Missing Entries:

      • If the key is missing, you may need to recreate or maintain the missing entries.
      • This can be done by reprocessing the vehicle master data or running specific SAP programs or reports that populate this table.
      • Sometimes, running the vehicle master data synchronization or update programs can help.
    4. Check Custom Code or Interfaces:

      • If the error occurs during a custom process or interface, check the logic that accesses EWUKEYS.
      • Ensure that the keys are correctly passed and that the data is consistent.
    5. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for relevant SAP Notes using the error message or table name.
      • Sometimes SAP provides patches or corrections for known issues related to this error.

    Related Information:

    • Table EWUKEYS:
      Stores key mapping information for vehicle handling processes. It links vehicle master data keys with other related keys used in vehicle management.

    • Transactions to check vehicle data:

      • IE01 / IE02 / IE03 - Create/Change/Display Equipment (Vehicle)
      • IH01 - Display Vehicle Hierarchy
      • SE16N / SE11 - Data Browser / Dictionary for table inspection
    • Common SAP Modules Involved:

      • Vehicle Management System (VMS)
      • Logistics Execution (LE)
      • Plant Maintenance (PM) if vehicles are managed as equipment
    • Typical Scenario:
      When creating or processing vehicle-related documents (e.g., vehicle orders, inspections, or maintenance), the system tries to find the vehicle key in EWUKEYS. If the key is missing, the VH118 error is triggered.


    Summary:

    • Cause: Missing or inconsistent vehicle key entry in table EWUKEYS.
    • Solution: Verify and maintain vehicle master data, check and populate EWUKEYS, review custom code or interfaces, and apply SAP Notes if available.

    If the problem persists after these steps, consider raising a support ticket with SAP, providing detailed logs and system information.
