Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_CONFIRMATION047 - Confirmation message with state synchronized was created ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation regarding the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WGDS_CONFIRMATION047: Confirmation message with state synchronized was created
  
  Cause:
  This message typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or SAP Supply Chain Execution (SCE) when a confirmation message is created with the status "synchronized". The status "synchronized" indicates that the confirmation message has already been processed or acknowledged by the system or the external system it communicates with.
  In other words, the system is trying to create or process a confirmation message that is already in a synchronized state, which means it has been sent and confirmed previously. This can happen due to:
  
  Duplicate processing attempts.
  Incorrect status handling in the confirmation process.
  Communication or integration issues where the system tries to resend or recreate confirmation messages unnecessarily.
  Custom code or enhancements that do not correctly handle the confirmation status.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Confirmation Status:
  
  Verify the current status of the confirmation message in the system.
  Ensure that the message is not being processed multiple times.
  
  
  
  Avoid Duplicate Processing:
  
  Review the logic or process that triggers the creation of confirmation messages.
  Implement checks to prevent creating confirmation messages if one with the status "synchronized" already exists.
  
  
  
  Review Integration Settings:
  
  If the confirmation message is part of an integration scenario (e.g., between SAP ERP and SAP GTS), check the communication settings and middleware logs.
  Ensure that messages are not being resent unnecessarily.
  
  
  
  Debug or Analyze Custom Code:
  
  If there are user exits, BAdIs, or custom programs involved in confirmation processing, review them for correct handling of confirmation statuses.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes and Support:
  
  Search for relevant SAP Notes that address this message or related confirmation processing issues.
  If the problem persists, consider raising a support ticket with SAP, providing detailed logs and system information.
