    SAP Message: WES_OUTBOUND025

    Text: Number of deleted objects: &1


    1. Cause

    This message typically appears in the context of SAP Workflow or Business Object processing, especially when dealing with outbound processing or ALE/IDoc scenarios. The message indicates that during a processing step, a certain number of objects (such as workflow tasks, outbound IDocs, or related data objects) have been deleted.

    Possible causes include:

    • Cleanup or deletion logic triggered: The system or a custom program has deleted objects as part of a cleanup or error handling routine.
    • Outbound processing failure: Objects that were supposed to be processed outbound (e.g., IDocs, workflow tasks) were deleted because they were obsolete, erroneous, or duplicated.
    • Manual or automatic deletion: Objects might have been deleted manually by an administrator or automatically by a background job.
    • Data inconsistency or error handling: The system detected inconsistencies and deleted objects to maintain data integrity.

    2. Solution

    Since this message is informational (it reports the number of deleted objects), the solution depends on the context in which it appears:

    • Check the logs and context: Review the workflow logs, IDoc monitoring (transaction WE02/WE05), or application logs (transaction SLG1) to understand why objects were deleted.
    • Verify if deletion was expected: Determine if the deletion was part of a normal cleanup or error handling process.
    • Investigate related errors: If this message appears alongside error messages, resolve those errors first.
    • Restore or reprocess if needed: If objects were deleted unintentionally, you may need to recreate or reprocess them.
    • Check custom code: If custom programs or user exits are involved, review the logic that deletes objects.
    • Consult SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to WES_OUTBOUND025 or the specific application area for known issues or patches.
