  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_CC_2012009 - &1 is not bound ?

    The SAP error message:

    WGDS_CC_2012009 &1 is not bound

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS), specifically related to the Compliance Management or Customs Management components where binding of certain objects or data elements is required.


    Cause

    • The error indicates that a particular object or entity (represented by the placeholder &1, which will be replaced by the actual object name or ID in the runtime message) is not bound or linked as expected.
    • In SAP GTS, "binding" often refers to the association of a document, data record, or object to another entity, such as a compliance check, customs declaration, or classification.
    • This error usually arises when:
      • A required binding or link between objects (e.g., a document and a compliance check, or a customs document and a declaration) is missing.
      • The system expects the object to be bound to another entity for processing, but this binding has not been established.
      • There might be missing configuration or master data setup that prevents the binding.
      • The user or process is trying to perform an action on an object that must be bound first.

    Typical Scenarios

    • Trying to process a customs document or compliance check without the necessary binding.
    • Missing or incorrect configuration in the integration between SAP ERP and SAP GTS.
    • Data inconsistencies or incomplete master data setup.
    • Custom code or enhancements that expect certain bindings but do not find them.

    Solution

    1. Identify the Object

      • Check the exact object or entity referenced by &1 in the error message.
      • Use transaction logs, debug, or error details to find which object is not bound.
    2. Check Binding Status

      • Verify if the object is supposed to be bound to another entity.
      • Use relevant SAP GTS transactions or reports to check the binding status.
      • For example, check if a customs document is linked to the correct declaration or if a compliance check is linked to the correct document.
    3. Establish the Binding

      • If the binding is missing, create or re-establish it.
      • This might involve:
        • Reprocessing the document.
        • Running specific SAP GTS functions or reports to bind the objects.
        • Correcting master data or configuration.
    4. Review Configuration

      • Check the configuration settings related to the process.
      • Ensure that the integration between SAP ERP and SAP GTS is correctly set up.
      • Verify that the relevant customizing for binding objects is complete.
    5. Check for Notes and Patches

      • Search SAP Support Portal for OSS Notes related to message WGDS_CC_2012009.
      • Apply any relevant SAP Notes or patches that address binding issues.
