• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY004 - TestDataIndicator is set ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation regarding the SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY004: TestDataIndicator is set:
  
  Error Message:
  WPRO_XI_PROXY004: TestDataIndicator is set
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a proxy message is received or processed in SAP PI/PO (Process Integration / Process Orchestration) or SAP PO (Process Orchestration) where the TestDataIndicator flag is set to true (or 'X'). The TestDataIndicator is a standard field in the SAP XI/PI message header that indicates whether the message is test data or productive data.
  
  The presence of the TestDataIndicator set to 'X' means the message is marked as test data.
  Some systems or configurations do not allow processing of test messages in productive scenarios.
  The error is raised to prevent test messages from being processed as productive data, which could lead to inconsistent or unwanted data processing.
  
  
  When does this happen?
  
  When a sender system or interface sends a message with the TestDataIndicator flag set.
  When the integration engine or adapter is configured to reject or flag test messages.
  During proxy communication where the test flag is set in the message header.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Source System / Sender Interface:
  
  Verify if the sender system or interface is intentionally sending test messages.
  If test messages are not intended, correct the sender configuration to not set the TestDataIndicator flag.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Receiver or Integration Engine Settings:
  
  If test messages are expected and should be processed, configure the integration engine or receiver system to accept messages with the TestDataIndicator set.
  This might involve changing the message processing settings or filters in SAP PI/PO.
  
  
  
  Remove or Reset the TestDataIndicator:
  
  If possible, modify the message mapping or adapter module to clear the TestDataIndicator flag before processing.
  This can be done by custom mapping or adapter module logic.
  
  
  
  Check the Integration Directory / ESR:
  
  Review the interface and communication channel settings to see if there are filters or validations on the TestDataIndicator.
  Adjust these settings if test messages should be allowed.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes / Documentation:
  
  Sometimes, specific SAP Notes provide patches or configuration guidelines related to this error.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  TestDataIndicator is part of the XI/PI message header and is used to distinguish test messages from productive messages.
  In SAP PI/PO, the TestDataIndicator can be used to route or filter messages differently.
  Processing test messages in productive systems can lead to data inconsistencies, so this flag is important for message governance.
  If you want to allow test messages, ensure that your business processes and systems are designed to handle them safely.
