  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG127 - Invalid external term ID &1 ?

    The SAP error message:

    WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG127 Invalid external term ID &1

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow or SAP Process Integration scenarios where an external term ID (identifier) is expected but found to be invalid or not recognized.


    Cause

    • The error indicates that the system received an external term ID that does not exist or is not valid in the current context.
    • This usually happens when:
      • The external term ID passed to a workflow or process integration interface is incorrect or malformed.
      • The external term ID is not maintained or registered in the system.
      • There is a mismatch between the external system sending the term ID and the SAP system expecting it.
      • Configuration or master data related to external term IDs is missing or inconsistent.

    Solution

    1. Verify the External Term ID:

      • Check the exact value of the external term ID passed to the system.
      • Confirm that it matches the expected format and values defined in your SAP system.
    2. Check Configuration / Master Data:

      • In SAP, external term IDs are often maintained in customizing or master data tables.
      • Use transaction codes or IMG paths related to the specific module or integration scenario to verify if the external term ID exists.
      • For example, in workflow or process integration, check the relevant customizing nodes or tables where external term IDs are maintained.
    3. Correct the Integration Data:

      • If the external term ID is coming from an external system, coordinate with the sending system to ensure the correct term ID is sent.
      • Adjust the mapping or interface logic if necessary.
    4. Debug / Trace:

      • Use SAP workflow logs, application logs (transaction SLG1), or integration engine traces (if PI/PO is involved) to trace the error.
      • Identify where the invalid external term ID is introduced.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WPM_MSG_OFR_PRM_INTG127 or "Invalid external term ID".
