• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_FILTER010 - Filter object &2 is not assigned to application &1 ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WES_FILTER010: Filter object &2 is not assigned to application &1
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when a filter object (identified by &2) is being used or referenced in the context of an application (identified by &1), but the filter object has not been assigned or linked to that application in the system.
  In SAP Enterprise Search (WES - Web Enterprise Search) or related search/filter configurations, filters must be explicitly assigned to applications to be valid. If you try to use a filter object that is not assigned to the application, the system throws this error.
  
  Common Scenarios:
  
  You are trying to execute a search or filter operation in an application, but the filter object is missing from the application’s filter assignment.
  During configuration or customization of search filters, the filter object was created but not linked to the application.
  Transport or system copy issues where filter assignments were not transported correctly.
  Custom developments or enhancements referencing filters not assigned properly.
  
  
  Solution / How to Fix:
  
  
  Assign the Filter Object to the Application:
  
  Go to the SAP transaction or IMG node where filter objects are assigned to applications.
  For SAP Enterprise Search, this is typically done in the configuration of the search application or filter settings.
  Assign the filter object (&2) to the application (&1).
  
  
  
  Check Filter Object and Application Configuration:
  
  Verify that the filter object exists and is active.
  Verify that the application is correctly configured and active.
  Ensure that the filter object is included in the application’s filter list.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Consistency:
  
  If this error occurs after a transport, check that the transport includes both the filter object and the application assignment.
  Re-transport or manually assign the filter object if necessary.
  
  
  
  Use SAP Transactions / IMG Paths:
  
  For Enterprise Search, use transaction WES2 or WES3 to maintain filters and applications.
  In the SAP IMG, navigate to:
  Enterprise Search -> Search Applications -> Define Filter Objects
  and
  Enterprise Search -> Search Applications -> Assign Filter Objects to Applications
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorization to maintain filter assignments.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Message Class: WES_FILTER
  This message is part of the SAP Enterprise Search (WES) module.
