    SAP Error Message: WER_UI055


    1. Cause:

    The error message WER_UI055 typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or Business Workplace (SBWP) when there is an issue related to the user interface or workflow container elements. Specifically, it often indicates that a required workflow container element or UI element is missing, incorrectly defined, or not properly bound.

    For example, this error can appear if:

    • A workflow step expects a certain container element that is not available or has not been passed correctly.
    • The UI component (e.g., a task form) is trying to access a container element that does not exist or is not initialized.
    • There is a mismatch between the workflow definition and the UI element bindings.

    2. Solution:

    To resolve WER_UI055, follow these steps:

    • Check Workflow Container Elements:

      • Go to the workflow builder (transaction SWDD).
      • Verify that all container elements required by the workflow step or task are correctly defined.
      • Ensure that the container elements are properly passed from one step to another.
    • Verify UI Element Bindings:

      • Check the binding of the UI elements (e.g., task forms) to the workflow container elements.
      • Make sure that the UI elements reference existing container elements with the correct names and data types.
    • Check Task Definition:

      • In transaction PFTC (Task Maintenance), verify the task definition and its container elements.
      • Ensure that the task is correctly linked to the workflow and that the container elements are consistent.
    • Debug the Workflow:

      • Use transaction SWUS or SWI1 to monitor the workflow.
      • Debug the workflow step where the error occurs to identify missing or incorrectly passed container elements.
    • Check Authorization:

      • Sometimes, missing authorizations can cause UI elements not to load properly.
      • Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the workflow and its UI components.
