    WG085 Insert error & inserting in table WVFB2 with external req. no. &


    1. Cause:

    • The error WG085 occurs during the process of inserting data into the table WVFB2.
    • This table is related to Workflow (WF) and specifically to external requisition numbers or external references in workflow tasks or workflow container elements.
    • The insert error typically happens because:
      • There is a duplicate key or primary key violation in the table WVFB2.
      • The external requisition number (external req. no.) being inserted already exists in the table.
      • There might be inconsistencies or incorrect data being passed to the workflow container or workflow task.
      • Database constraints or locks might prevent the insert.
      • The workflow runtime environment is trying to create a new entry with an external reference number that is already present.

    2. Solution:

    • Check for Duplicate Entries:

      • Verify if the external requisition number already exists in the table WVFB2.
      • Use transaction SE16/SE16N or SE11 to view the contents of WVFB2.
      • If duplicates exist, investigate why the same external req. no. is being reused.
    • Analyze Workflow Logic:

      • Check the workflow that is triggering this insert.
      • Ensure that the external requisition number is unique and correctly generated.
      • Review the workflow container elements or the method/function module that inserts into WVFB2.
    • Database Consistency:

      • Check for database locks or inconsistencies.
      • Run database consistency checks if necessary.
    • Debugging:

      • Debug the workflow runtime or the program that inserts into WVFB2 to identify the exact point of failure.
      • Check the parameters passed to the insert statement.
    • SAP Notes and Patches:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WG085 or WVFB2 insert errors.
