  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_COMMON_DDIC001 - No numeric country code found for &1 ?

    The SAP error message:

    WGDS_COMMON_DDIC001 No numeric country code found for &1

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or other SAP modules where country codes are used and expected in numeric format.


    Cause

    • The system is trying to find a numeric country code corresponding to a given alpha (ISO) country code (e.g., "US", "DE", "IN").
    • The error indicates that the system cannot find a numeric country code for the provided country code &1 (where &1 is replaced by the actual country code in the message).
    • This usually happens because:
      • The country code is not maintained in the relevant customizing tables.
      • The country code is incorrect or invalid.
      • The mapping between alpha and numeric country codes is missing or incomplete.
      • The relevant country code tables or customizing have not been properly transported or updated.

    Where is the mapping maintained?

    • The mapping between alpha (ISO) country codes and numeric country codes is maintained in SAP customizing tables such as:
      • T005 (Country Codes)
      • T005T (Country Descriptions)
      • T005U (Country Groupings)
    • In SAP GTS, additional customizing or master data might be involved.

    Solution

    1. Check the country code &1:

      • Verify that the country code passed to the system is correct and valid.
      • Check if the country code exists in table T005.
    2. Maintain the numeric country code:

      • Go to transaction SPRO ? SAP Reference IMG ? Basic Settings ? Country Groupings ? Define Country Codes.
      • Ensure that the country code &1 is maintained with a corresponding numeric code.
      • If missing, add the numeric country code for the alpha country code.
    3. Check customizing transport:

      • If the customizing was recently transported, verify that the country code data was included and transported correctly.
    4. Check for notes or patches:

      • Sometimes, SAP releases notes related to country code handling in GTS or other modules.
      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WGDS_COMMON_DDIC001 or country code mapping issues.
    5. Debugging:

      • If the problem persists, debugging the program or function module that raises the error can help identify why the mapping is missing.

      • Numeric (ISO 3166-1 numeric): e.g., 840 (US), 276 (DE), 356 (IN)
