  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WI702: No tasks found for the application component:
  
  Error Message
  WI702: No tasks found for the application component
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in the SAP Workflow system when the workflow runtime tries to determine the tasks (work items) associated with a particular application component, but no tasks are defined or assigned to that component in the workflow configuration.
  In other words, the workflow engine is looking for workflow tasks linked to a specific application component (e.g., FI, MM, SD), but it cannot find any tasks because:
  
  No tasks have been created or assigned to the application component.
  The application component is incorrectly specified or missing in the workflow definition.
  The customizing for the workflow tasks and application components is incomplete or incorrect.
  The workflow container or task assignment is not properly maintained.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When starting or processing a workflow that involves tasks linked to an application component.
  When the workflow tries to determine the next step/task based on the application component but fails to find any.
  During workflow task determination or task assignment steps.
  
  
  Solution / How to fix
  
  
  Check Workflow Task Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SWETYPV (Workflow Event Linkage) or PFTC (Task Maintenance).
  Verify that tasks are created and assigned to the relevant application component.
  Ensure that the tasks are active and correctly linked to the application component.
  
  
  
  Check Application Component Assignment:
  
  In the workflow customizing (transaction SWU3 or SPRO under Workflow settings), verify that the application component is correctly maintained.
  Make sure the application component exists and is correctly spelled in the workflow definition.
  
  
  
  Maintain Workflow Customizing:
  
  Use transaction SWU3 (Automatic Workflow Customizing) to check and activate workflow customizing.
  Ensure that the workflow tasks and application components are properly configured.
  
  
  
  Check Workflow Container and Task Determination:
  
  Review the workflow definition in SWDD (Workflow Builder).
  Check the task determination logic and ensure that the application component is correctly referenced.
  Verify that the workflow container has the necessary data to determine the tasks.
  
  
  
  Check for Missing or Incorrect Application Component:
  
  Sometimes, the application component might be missing or incorrectly passed in the workflow start parameters.
  Verify the input parameters and ensure the correct application component is passed.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Consistency:
  
  If the workflow was transported from another system, ensure that all related customizing objects (tasks, application components) were transported correctly.
  Check for inconsistencies between development and production systems.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  
  Application Component in SAP Workflow:
  
  Application components are used to group related workflow tasks and events. They help in organizing workflows according to business areas or modules.
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SWETYPV – Event Linkage Maintenance
  PFTC – Task Maintenance
  SWDD – Workflow Builder
  SWU3 – Automatic Workflow Customizing
  SWI1 – Work Item Selection (to check existing work items)
  
  
  
  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to workflow task assignment and application components if the problem persists.
  
  
  
  Summary
  
  
  
  Aspect
  Description
  
  
  
  
  Cause
  No workflow tasks assigned or found for the specified application component.
  
  
  Effect
  Workflow cannot proceed as it cannot find tasks to execute for the application component.
  
  
  Solution
  Verify and maintain workflow tasks, application components, and workflow customizing.
  
  
  Key Transactions
