• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WES_OUTBOUND084 - No filter objects defined for application &1 ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WES_OUTBOUND084 No filter objects defined for application &1
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or SAP Business Workflow, specifically related to the outbound processing of workflow events or messages. The message indicates that for the specified application (represented by &1), no filter objects have been defined.
  In SAP Workflow, filter objects are used to filter workflow events or to determine which workflow container elements should be passed along. If no filter objects are defined for an application, the system does not know how to handle or filter the outbound workflow events for that application, leading to this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When a workflow event is triggered for an application, but the system cannot find any filter objects defined for that application.
  During outbound processing of workflow events/messages.
  Typically seen in scenarios involving event linkage or event triggering where filtering is expected.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Filter Objects for the Application:
  
  Use transaction SWETYPV (Event Linkage) or SWETYP (Event Types) to check the event linkage for the application.
  Ensure that filter objects are defined for the application in question.
  If missing, define the necessary filter objects that specify which container elements or data should be passed when the event is triggered.
  
  
  
  Check Event Linkage Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SWETYPV.
  Enter the application name (the &1 value from the error message).
  Verify if filter objects are assigned.
  If not, create or assign appropriate filter objects.
  
  
  
  Check Workflow Container and Event Linkage:
  
  Make sure the workflow container elements correspond to the filter objects.
  Adjust the workflow container or event linkage if necessary.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes:
  
  If changes are made in a development system, ensure they are transported to quality and production systems.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Filter Objects: These are used to filter the data passed from the triggering event to the workflow container. They help in controlling the data flow and ensuring only relevant data is passed.
  Applications: In SAP Workflow, an application is a grouping of events and event types related to a business object or process.
  Transactions:
  
  SWETYPV: Event Linkage - Define filter objects for event types.
  SWETYP: Event Types - Define and maintain event types.
  SWDD: Workflow Builder - To check workflow container elements.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Sometimes SAP releases notes related to specific workflow errors. Check the SAP Support Portal for any notes related to WES_OUTBOUND084.
