    Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message: WER010 - Application name &1 does not exist


    Cause:

    The error message WER010 occurs when the system tries to access or reference an application name that is not defined or does not exist in the system. This typically happens in the context of SAP Workflow or when dealing with applications in the SAP Business Workplace or related components.

    • The placeholder &1 in the message is replaced by the actual application name that the system could not find.
    • The application name might be misspelled, deleted, or never created.
    • It can also occur if the application is referenced in a workflow or program but has not been properly registered or maintained in the system.

    When does it occur?

    • When starting or processing a workflow that references a non-existent application.
    • When trying to execute or call an application that is not defined in the system.
    • During configuration or customization where application names are maintained.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Application Name:

      • Verify the application name that is causing the error.
      • Ensure that the application name is correctly spelled and exists in the system.
    2. Maintain or Create the Application:

      • Use transaction SWUD (Workflow Builder) or SWI1 to check workflow applications.
      • Use transaction SWO1 or SWO2 to check object types and their methods if related.
      • Use transaction SWI2_FREQ or SWI2_DIAG to analyze workflow errors.
      • If the application does not exist, create or maintain it in the system.
    3. Check Workflow Configuration:

      • If the error occurs in a workflow, check the workflow container and the tasks to ensure the application name is correctly referenced.
      • Use transaction PFTC to check the task and its associated application.
    4. Check Authorization:

      • Sometimes, the application might exist but the user does not have authorization to access it, leading to this error.
      • Verify user authorizations related to the application.
    5. Transport Issues:

      • If the application was recently transported, ensure the transport was successful and the application exists in the target system.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SWUD - Workflow Builder
      • PFTC - Maintain Tasks
