How To Fix WD483 - Table processing does not allow modeling of outcomes

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WD - Workflow definition

• Message number: 483

• Message text: Table processing does not allow modeling of outcomes

What causes this issue?

You have activated <LS>dynamic parallel processing using a table
element</>.
Thus, work items are executed in parallel processing branches as often
as there are values contained in the list of the multiline container
element.
However, you have used a task that has several outcomes. This is not
permitted.

System Response

The task chosen cannot be used.

How to fix this error?

Enter a task with only one outcome.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WD483 - Table processing does not allow modeling of outcomes ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WD483 Table processing does not allow modeling of outcomes
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in the context of Web Dynpro ABAP when you are working with Table Processing UI elements and trying to use Outcome Modeling (i.e., defining navigation outcomes or actions directly on UI elements like buttons or links inside a table).
  Table Processing is a special UI element used to display and edit tabular data. However, it does not support outcome modeling because the framework expects you to handle user interactions (like button clicks) differently, typically via event handlers or context node actions rather than declarative outcome modeling.
  In other words, the error means you are trying to assign or model an outcome (navigation or action) on a UI element inside a Table Processing control, which is not allowed.
  
  When does it happen?
  
  When you try to assign an outcome (e.g., navigation outcome) to a UI element inside a Table Processing control.
  When you try to use declarative outcome modeling on UI elements that are part of Table Processing.
  Possibly when you try to use the "Model Outcome" feature in the Web Dynpro component editor on such elements.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Remove Outcome Modeling on Table Processing Elements:
  
  Do not assign or model outcomes on UI elements inside Table Processing controls.
  
  
  Use Event Handlers Instead:
  
  Handle user interactions inside Table Processing by implementing event handlers in the Web Dynpro component controller or view controller. For example:
  
  Use the onAction event of buttons or links inside the table.
  In the event handler method, implement the logic for navigation or other actions programmatically.
  
  
  
  Use Context and Navigation Programmatically:
  
  Instead of declarative outcome modeling, use the Web Dynpro API to trigger navigation or other outcomes in your event handler code.
  
  
  Alternative UI Elements:
  
  If you need outcome modeling, consider using other UI elements like Table UI element (not Table Processing) or other controls that support outcome modeling.

  SAP Help:
  
  Refer to SAP Web Dynpro ABAP documentation on Table Processing and Outcome Modeling for details on supported features and best practices.
  
  
  SAP Notes / Forums:
  
  This is a known limitation in Web Dynpro ABAP UI design. Searching SAP Community or SAP Notes with the error message WD483 can provide additional insights.
  
  
  Web Dynpro Concepts:
  
  Outcome modeling is typically used for navigation between views or components. Table Processing is designed for inline editing and data manipulation, so it requires event-driven programming rather than declarative navigation.

  Error
  WD483 Table processing does not allow modeling of outcomes
  
  
  Cause
  Trying to assign/model outcomes on UI elements inside Table Processing control
  
  
  Solution
  Remove outcome modeling; handle user actions via event handlers and programmatic navigation
  
  
  Best Practice
  Use event handlers for buttons/links inside Table Processing; use other UI elements if declarative outcome modeling is needed
  
  
  
  
  If you provide the specific Web Dynpro scenario or code snippet, I can help you with a more tailored example on how to handle the event and navigation programmatically.
