  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG040 - Missing GET term operator ID ?

    The SAP error message WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG040: Missing GET term operator ID typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or Business Process Management, particularly when dealing with workflow container elements, binding, or expression evaluation.


    Cause

    • The error "Missing GET term operator ID" indicates that the workflow engine or the workflow container is trying to access or retrieve a value (using a GET operation) from a container element or a parameter, but the operator ID (i.e., the identifier or reference to the container element or parameter) is missing or not properly defined.
    • This usually happens when:
      • A workflow step or method is trying to read a container element that has not been properly initialized or bound.
      • The workflow container element or parameter is not correctly mapped or is missing in the binding.
      • There is a syntax or configuration error in the expression or binding where the GET operator is used.
      • The workflow template or task is referencing a container element that does not exist or is misspelled.

    Solution

    1. Check Workflow Container Bindings:

      • Go to the workflow builder (transaction SWDD).
      • Open the workflow or task where the error occurs.
      • Check the container elements and their bindings.
      • Ensure that all container elements referenced in the GET operations are correctly defined and bound.
      • Verify that the container element names are spelled correctly and exist in the container.
    2. Verify Expression Syntax:

      • If the error occurs during expression evaluation (e.g., in a binding expression or a container element assignment), check the syntax.
      • Make sure the GET operator is used correctly, and the referenced container element ID is valid.
    3. Initialize Container Elements:

      • Ensure that the container elements are initialized before they are accessed.
      • If a container element is expected to be passed from a previous step or method, verify that it is actually being passed.
    4. Check Task or Method Parameters:

      • If the error occurs in a task or method, check the import/export parameters.
      • Make sure the parameters are correctly mapped to container elements.
    5. Debug Workflow:

      • Use transaction SWUS or SWI1 to monitor the workflow.
      • Use the workflow log to identify the exact step where the error occurs.
      • Use the workflow debugger (SWUD) to step through the workflow and inspect container elements.
