  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBI_CHECKS003 - No value for &1 for Service Definition &2 operation &3 ?

    The SAP error message:

    WEBI_CHECKS003 No value for &1 for Service Definition &2 operation &3

    Meaning / Cause:

    This error typically occurs in SAP BusinessObjects Web Intelligence (WebI) when a required parameter or value is missing for a specific service definition and operation. In other words, the WebI report or the underlying service call expects a certain input value (parameter) which has not been provided or is empty.

    • &1 = The name of the missing parameter or value.
    • &2 = The service definition name.
    • &3 = The operation name within the service definition.

    This usually happens during the execution of a WebI report or when invoking a WebI service operation via the RESTful or Java APIs, where mandatory parameters are not passed or are null.

    Common scenarios:

    • A WebI report is scheduled or refreshed but a required prompt or input parameter is not supplied.
    • Custom code or SDK calls to WebI services omit mandatory parameters.
    • Integration with other SAP tools or thirdologies where service calls are made without all required inputs.
    • Corrupted or incomplete report definitions or service configurations.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Identify the missing parameter (&1):

      • Check the error message details to find which parameter is missing.
      • Review the WebI report prompts or input controls to ensure all required values are provided.
      • If using SDK or API calls, verify that all mandatory parameters are included in the request.
    2. Check the service definition (&2) and operation (&3):

      • Understand which service and operation is being called.
      • Review the service documentation or WSDL (if SOAP) or API specs (if REST) to confirm required parameters.
    3. Provide the missing value:

      • For reports: supply the missing prompt value or default value.
      • For API calls: add the missing parameter with a valid value.
      • For scheduling: ensure the scheduling job includes all required inputs.
    4. Validate report and service configuration:

      • Open the WebI report in the BI Launchpad or Web Intelligence Rich Client.
      • Check prompts, input controls, and variables.
      • Test the report interactively to confirm all inputs are requested and provided.
    5. Check for patches or known issues:

      • Sometimes this error can be caused by bugs fixed in patches or support packs.
      • Review SAP Notes related to WebI and service errors.
    6. Review logs for more details:

      • Check the WebI server logs (webi.log) and CMS logs for more context.
      • Look for stack traces or additional error messages.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WEBI_CHECKS003 or missing parameter errors in WebI.
