  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WD206 - Outcome not modeled for other values ?

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


    SAP Error Message: WD206 Outcome not modeled for other values


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs in the Web Dynpro ABAP environment, specifically when dealing with navigation outcomes in a Web Dynpro component.

    • In Web Dynpro, navigation between views or components is controlled by navigation outcomes.
    • When an action triggers navigation, the framework expects a predefined outcome value that matches one of the modeled navigation links.
    • The error "WD206 Outcome not modeled for other values" means that the navigation outcome returned by the action handler is not defined in the navigation model of the Web Dynpro component.
    • In other words, the outcome string returned by the method or event handler does not correspond to any navigation link configured in the Web Dynpro component's navigation model.

    When does it happen?

    • When a method or event handler returns a navigation outcome string that is not mapped to any navigation link.
    • When the navigation outcome is dynamic or conditional, and the returned value is unexpected or missing in the navigation model.
    • When the navigation model is incomplete or incorrectly configured.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Navigation Model:

      • Open the Web Dynpro component in the SAP Web Dynpro Explorer.
      • Go to the Navigation tab.
      • Verify that all possible outcome strings returned by your code are modeled as navigation links.
      • Add missing navigation links for all possible outcomes.
    2. Check the Outcome String Returned:

      • Debug or log the outcome string returned by the event handler or method.
      • Ensure that the returned string exactly matches one of the modeled navigation outcomes (case-sensitive).
    3. Handle Unexpected Outcomes:

      • If the outcome can be dynamic, consider adding a default navigation link or handling unexpected outcomes gracefully.
      • Alternatively, validate the outcome before returning it.
    4. Correct the Code:

      • If the outcome string is hardcoded or constructed dynamically, ensure it matches the navigation model.
      • Fix any typos or logic errors that cause unexpected outcome values.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Note: Sometimes SAP Notes related to Web Dynpro navigation issues can provide patches or additional guidance.
    • Web Dynpro Documentation: Refer to SAP Help Portal for Web Dynpro navigation concepts.
    • Debugging: Use the Web Dynpro debugger to trace the navigation flow and see what outcome is returned.
    • Common Navigation Outcomes: Typical outcomes are strings like 'NEXT', 'BACK', 'CANCEL', etc., but they must be explicitly modeled.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WD206 Outcome not modeled for other values
    Cause Navigation outcome returned by code is not defined in the Web Dynpro navigation model.
    Solution Define the missing navigation outcome in the component's navigation model or correct the returned outcome string.
    Checkpoints Navigation tab in Web Dynpro component, outcome strings in code, debugging navigation flow.

    If you provide the specific outcome string or code snippet, I can help you identify the exact missing navigation link or suggest code corrections.
