• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND022 - Number of objects after applying filters: &1 ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND022:
  
  SAP Error Message: WES_OUTBOUND022
  Text: Number of objects after applying filters: &1
  
  1. Cause
  This message is typically an informational or warning message rather than an error. It appears in the context of SAP systems when working with Outbound Processing in the Workflow Engine Service (WES) or related middleware components that handle object filtering and processing.
  
  The message indicates the number of objects that remain after applying certain filters during outbound processing.
  It is generated to inform the user or administrator about how many objects (e.g., workflow tasks, business objects, messages) passed the filter criteria and will be processed or sent out.
  The placeholder &1 is replaced by the actual number of objects after filtering.
  
  Common scenarios where this message appears:
  
  When configuring or running outbound filters in workflow or middleware scenarios.
  During the execution of outbound processing steps where filters are applied to select relevant objects.
  When debugging or monitoring outbound message processing or workflow triggers.
  
  
  2. Solution
  Since this message is informational, it usually does not require corrective action unless the number of objects is unexpected (e.g., zero or too many).
  Steps to take:
  
  Verify filter criteria: Check the filters applied in the outbound processing step to ensure they are correctly defined and match the intended objects.
  Check the number of objects:  
  
  If the number is zero, it might indicate that the filters are too restrictive or incorrectly set, causing no objects to be processed.
  If the number is unexpectedly high, the filters might be too broad.
  
  
  Adjust filters as needed: Modify the filter conditions to better target the desired objects.
  Review related configuration: Check the outbound processing or workflow configuration to ensure it aligns with business requirements.
  Monitor subsequent processing: Confirm that the objects counted are correctly processed downstream.
