  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W_CB395 - Status &1 doesn't exist in status profile &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    W_CB395 Status &1 doesn't exist in status profile &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This warning message occurs when the system tries to set or check a status (&1) that is not defined in the status profile (&2) assigned to the object or transaction.

    • Status Profile (&2): A collection of allowed statuses for a particular business object or process.
    • Status (&1): The specific status code that the system is trying to use or validate.

    The error indicates that the status code you are trying to assign or validate is not part of the allowed statuses in the status profile. This can happen due to:

    • Customization or configuration issues where the status profile does not include the required status.
    • Programming errors where an invalid or incorrect status code is used.
    • Data inconsistencies or missing status assignments in the system.

    When does it occur?

    • During status changes in business objects (e.g., sales orders, production orders, service orders).
    • When custom code or standard SAP logic tries to set a status that is not maintained in the status profile.
    • During status checks in user exits, BAdIs, or workflow processing.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Check the Status Profile:

      • Go to transaction BS02 (Change Status Profile) or BS03 (Display Status Profile).
      • Enter the status profile name (&2) mentioned in the error.
      • Verify if the status (&1) exists in the list of allowed statuses.
    2. Add Missing Status:

      • If the status (&1) is missing, add it to the status profile.
      • Ensure that the status is properly defined in transaction BS21 (Define Status).
      • Save and activate the status profile.
    3. Check Custom Code:

      • If the status profile is correct, check any custom developments or user exits that might be trying to set an invalid status.
      • Correct the status code in the code or adjust the logic to use a valid status.
    4. Check Object and Status Profile Assignment:

      • Verify that the correct status profile is assigned to the business object or transaction.
      • Sometimes, the wrong status profile might be assigned, causing the status to be invalid.
    5. Transport and System Consistency:

      • If the status profile or status was recently changed or transported, ensure the transport was successful and consistent across systems.

    Additional Information:

    • Status Profiles are used extensively in SAP to control the lifecycle and allowed statuses of business objects.
    • The message class W_CB395 is related to status management in SAP.
    • This is a warning message (W), so it may not stop processing but indicates a potential issue that should be corrected.
    • Proper status management ensures data integrity and correct process flow.

    Example:

    If you have a status profile ZPROF01 and the system tries to set status 03 which is not defined in ZPROF01, you will get this warning:

    W_CB395 Status 03 doesn't exist in status profile ZPROF01

    You would then add status 03 to ZPROF01 in BS02 or correct the logic that tries to set status 03.
