  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WART_MSG026 - Names of &1, &2 and &3 can be cut because of longer text in the backend. ?

    The SAP error message WART_MSG026 indicates that the names of certain fields (represented by placeholders &1, &2, and &3) are being truncated due to longer text in the backend system. This typically occurs in scenarios where the length of the text being processed exceeds the allowed limit for display or storage in the SAP system.

    Cause:

    1. Text Length Exceeding Limits: The backend system has defined limits for the length of certain fields or texts. If the text being processed exceeds these limits, the system will truncate the text, leading to this warning message.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the backend that define the maximum length for certain fields, and if the data being sent exceeds these settings, truncation will occur.
    3. Data Migration or Integration Issues: If data is being migrated from another system or integrated from external sources, the text length may not conform to the expected limits in SAP.

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Lengths: Review the field definitions in the backend system to understand the maximum allowed lengths for the fields in question. Adjust the data being sent to ensure it does not exceed these limits.
    2. Data Truncation Handling: If truncation is acceptable, you can implement logic to handle this in your application, ensuring that the truncated data is still meaningful.
    3. Configuration Adjustments: If possible, adjust the configuration settings in the backend to allow for longer text lengths, if that is feasible and does not violate any business rules.
    4. Data Cleansing: If the data is being migrated or integrated, consider cleansing the data to ensure that it conforms to the expected lengths before it is processed by SAP.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to understand the specific limitations and how they can be addressed.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide guidance on handling text length issues.
    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the field definitions and their lengths.
    • Debugging: If you have access to the development environment, you can debug the process to see where the truncation is occurring and gather more context about the data being processed.

    By addressing the underlying causes and implementing the suggested solutions, you should be able to resolve the WART_MSG026 error and prevent it from occurring in the future.
