• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WD047 - The chosen function does not require any technical parametrization ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WD047: "The chosen function does not require any technical parametrization":
  
  Error Message:
  WD047 - The chosen function does not require any technical parametrization
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in the context of Web Dynpro ABAP development, specifically when working with Web Dynpro components and their technical parametrization.
  
  In Web Dynpro, certain functions or components require technical parametrization to define how they behave or are integrated into the Web Dynpro application.
  The error message indicates that you have selected a function or component that does not need any technical parametrization, but you are trying to perform or access technical parametrization settings for it.
  Essentially, the system is telling you that the function you chose is not designed to be parametrized technically, so no such settings exist or are necessary.
  
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  When you try to create or edit a technical parametrization for a Web Dynpro component or function that inherently does not support or require it.
  For example, when you select a function module or a Web Dynpro component that is self-contained or does not expose any technical parameters.
  It can also happen if you mistakenly try to assign technical parameters to a function that is purely functional or does not have configurable parameters.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the function or component you selected:
  
  Verify if the function or Web Dynpro component you are trying to parametrize actually supports technical parametrization.
  Refer to the SAP documentation or component metadata to confirm if technical parametrization is applicable.
  
  
  
  Select the correct function/component:
  
  If you need to perform technical parametrization, choose a function or component that requires it.
  If the function does not require parametrization, then you do not need to perform any technical parametrization steps.
  
  
  
  Avoid unnecessary parametrization:
  
  Simply skip the technical parametrization step for functions/components that do not require it.
  Proceed with other configuration or development steps as appropriate.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP documentation or notes:
  
  Sometimes, SAP Notes or documentation provide clarifications on which functions/components require technical parametrization.
  Check SAP Help Portal or SAP Notes for your specific Web Dynpro component or function.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Technical parametrization in Web Dynpro is used to define parameters such as input/output parameters, context mapping, or integration details for components.
  Not all Web Dynpro components or functions expose such parameters; some are designed to be used as-is.
  This message is informational and prevents unnecessary or invalid configuration attempts.
  If you are unsure whether a function requires parametrization, consult the component's interface or the development documentation.
  
  
  Summary:
  
  
  
  Aspect
  Description
  
  
  
  
  Cause
  Attempting to perform technical parametrization on a function/component that does not need it.
  
  
  Solution
  Verify if parametrization is required; if not, skip this step or select a different function.
  
  
  Related Info
  Applies to Web Dynpro ABAP components/functions; check SAP documentation for parametrization requirements.
