• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WFF_FORM_GENERATOR102 - Generation of page &1 was skipped ?

  The SAP error message:
  WFF_FORM_GENERATOR102: Generation of page &1 was skipped
  
  Cause:
  This message occurs during the generation of workflow forms (usually in the context of SAP Business Workflow and the form generation process for task containers or workflow steps). The system tries to generate a page (screen) for a workflow form but skips it because the page is either not required, not defined, or the generation logic determines it should be omitted.
  Common causes include:
  
  The page number (&1) does not exist or is not defined in the form layout.
  The form generation logic or template excludes certain pages based on conditions.
  The workflow form is partially generated because some pages are optional or dependent on data that is missing.
  The form generation program or function module detects that the page is not needed and skips it intentionally.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the form layout: Verify that the page number mentioned (&1) exists in the form layout or template used for the workflow form.
  Review form generation logic: If custom logic or enhancements are used in form generation, check if conditions cause the page to be skipped.
  Check workflow container and data: Ensure that all required data for the page is available and correctly passed to the form generator.
  Debug the form generation: Use debugging tools to trace the form generation process and understand why the page is skipped.
  SAP Notes and documentation: Look for SAP Notes related to WFF_FORM_GENERATOR messages for any known issues or patches.
