  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_PROCESS166 - No registered VE-Processor Event , process aborted ?

    The SAP error message:

    WGDS_PROCESS166 No registered VE-Processor Event, process aborted

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or SAP Event Management (EM) when a process tries to trigger or handle a VE-Processor event, but no event handler (VE-Processor) is registered for the event in question.


    Cause

    • No VE-Processor registered for the event: The system expects a VE-Processor (an event handler or processor) to be registered for a specific event type, but none is found.
    • Configuration missing or incomplete: The event type or event handler might not have been configured properly in the system.
    • Custom event or process: If you are using custom events or custom VE-Processors, the registration might be missing or incorrectly implemented.
    • Transport or system inconsistency: Sometimes, after transports or system upgrades, the registration of VE-Processors might be lost or inconsistent.

    Explanation

    • VE-Processor: In SAP Event Management, a VE-Processor is a component that processes events (VE = Vehicle Event or generally Event). It is responsible for handling specific event types.
    • When an event is triggered, the system looks up the registered VE-Processor to handle the event.
    • If no VE-Processor is registered for the event, the system cannot process the event and aborts the process, resulting in this error.

    Solution

    1. Check Event and VE-Processor Registration:

      • Go to the SAP Event Management customizing transaction (e.g., /SAPTRX/VE or /SAPTRX/EM depending on your system).
      • Verify that the event type you are trying to process has a VE-Processor assigned.
      • If missing, assign the correct VE-Processor to the event.
    2. Verify Configuration in IMG:

      • Navigate to the IMG path for Event Management or GTS Event Management.
      • Check the configuration for event types and their processors.
      • Ensure that the event type is correctly linked to a VE-Processor.
    3. Check Custom Implementations:

      • If you have custom VE-Processors, ensure they are properly registered.
      • Check the implementation of the VE-Processor class or function module.
      • Make sure the registration is done in the system (e.g., via customizing or via code).
    4. Check for Missing Transports or Inconsistencies:

      • If this error appeared after a system upgrade or transport, verify that all related customizing and development objects are imported.
      • Re-import or re-apply the configuration if necessary.
    5. Debugging:

      • Use debugging to check which event is being processed and why the VE-Processor is not found.
      • Check the event ID and the lookup for the VE-Processor.
    6. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WGDS_PROCESS166.
      • Sometimes SAP releases notes or patches fixing issues related to event processing.

    Related Information

    • SAP Event Management (EM): The module responsible for tracking and processing business events.
