  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WA895 - Event queue data selected ?

    The SAP message WA895 - Event queue data selected typically appears in the context of ALE (Application Link Enabling) or IDoc processing. Here's a detailed explanation:


    Cause

    • WA895 is an informational message indicating that event queue data has been selected.
    • It usually occurs when you are working with the event queue in ALE, for example, when monitoring or processing events related to IDocs.
    • The message means that the system has found and selected data in the event queue for processing.
    • It is not an error but rather a status or informational message.
    • The event queue contains entries that trigger ALE processing, such as sending or receiving IDocs.
    • This message can appear during transaction codes like WE02, WE05, or when running ALE-related reports or programs that handle event queues.

    Solution

    • Since WA895 is informational, no corrective action is required.
    • You can proceed with the processing or monitoring as intended.
    • If you are troubleshooting ALE or IDoc issues, this message confirms that event queue data is present and being handled.
    • If you want to clear the event queue, you can use transaction SMQ1 (Outbound Queue) or SMQ2 (Inbound Queue) to monitor and process queued messages.
    • If the event queue is growing unexpectedly, investigate the root cause of the events being generated (e.g., master data changes, distribution model issues).

    Related Information

    • Event Queue in ALE: The event queue stores events that trigger ALE processing. Events are generated when certain changes occur in the system (e.g., material master changes) and are used to distribute data to other systems.
    • Transaction Codes:
      • WE02 / WE05: IDoc display and monitoring.
      • SMQ1 / SMQ2: Outbound and inbound queues for ALE messages.
      • BD87: Reprocessing of IDocs.
    • ALE and IDoc Processing: Understanding the event queue is important for troubleshooting ALE distribution and IDoc communication.
    • SAP Notes: If you encounter issues related to event queues or ALE processing, check SAP Notes for specific fixes or recommendations.
