  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WI730 - Enter a task group (type TG) ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WI730 - Enter a task group (type TG)


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you are trying to create or process a workflow step that requires a Task Group (object type TG), but the system does not find a valid task group entered or assigned. In SAP Workflow, a Task Group is a collection of tasks that can be assigned to agents collectively.

    Common scenarios causing this error:

    • You are defining or modifying a workflow step that expects a task group but the field is left blank.
    • The task group specified does not exist or is not properly maintained.
    • The workflow step is configured to use a task group but no task group has been assigned.

    Explanation:

    In SAP Workflow, a Task Group (TG) is used to group multiple tasks so that the workflow can assign any task from the group to an agent. When a workflow step requires a task group, the system expects a valid task group ID to be entered.

    If the task group is missing or invalid, the system throws the error WI730 prompting you to enter a valid task group.


    Solution:

    1. Enter a valid Task Group:

      • When defining the workflow step, ensure that the Task Group field is filled with a valid task group ID.
      • You can check existing task groups in transaction PFTC (Maintain Task) or via the workflow builder.
    2. Create a Task Group if none exists:

      • If no suitable task group exists, create one using transaction PFTC.
      • In PFTC, create a new task of type Task Group (TG) and assign the relevant tasks to this group.
    3. Check Workflow Step Configuration:

      • Verify the step in the workflow builder (transaction SWDD) to ensure the step is correctly set to use a task group.
      • If the step should not use a task group, adjust the step type or assignment method accordingly.
    4. Check Authorizations:

      • Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to create or assign task groups.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • PFTC - Maintain Tasks and Task Groups
      • SWDD - Workflow Builder
      • SWI1 - Workflow Log
      • SWI2_FREQ - Workflow Runtime Analysis
    • SAP Help:

      • SAP Workflow documentation on Task Groups: SAP Help Portal
      • Task Groups are used to assign multiple tasks to agents collectively.
    • Notes:

      • Task groups simplify workflow maintenance by grouping tasks.
      • Always ensure task groups are properly maintained and assigned to avoid runtime errors.

    Summary:

    Aspect Description
    Error WI730 - Enter a task group (type TG)
    Cause Missing or invalid task group in workflow step
    Solution Enter or create a valid task group (TG) in the workflow step
    Tools PFTC (task maintenance), SWDD (workflow builder)
