  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY013 - Confirming business process &1, order ID &2 (PI message &3) failed ?

    The SAP error message:

    WPRO_XI_PROXY013 Confirming business process &1, order ID &2 (PI message &3) failed

    is related to the SAP Process Integration (PI) or Process Orchestration (PO) scenario where a business process confirmation via a proxy interface has failed.


    Cause

    This error typically occurs when the confirmation of a business process instance (such as a workflow or order processing step) via an XI/PI proxy call fails. The reasons can include:

    • Communication issues between the SAP backend system and the PI/PO system.
    • Incorrect or missing configuration in the integration scenario (e.g., wrong endpoint, wrong interface mapping).
    • Runtime errors in the PI message processing (e.g., mapping errors, adapter errors).
    • The business process instance identified by the order ID (&2) may not exist or is in an inconsistent state.
    • The PI message (&3) related to the confirmation failed due to message processing errors.
    • Authorization or system errors in the backend system or PI system.
    • Network or system downtime during message confirmation.

    Solution

    To resolve this error, follow these steps:

    1. Check the PI/PO Message Monitor:

      • Go to the SAP PI/PO system and check the message with ID &3 in the Message Monitoring (transaction SXMB_MONI or the web-based Message Monitoring).
      • Look for errors in message processing, mapping, adapter communication, or routing.
      • Fix any errors found (e.g., correct mapping, resend message).
    2. Verify Configuration:

      • Check the integration scenario configuration for the business process confirmation interface.
      • Ensure the endpoint URLs, communication channels, and interface mappings are correct.
      • Verify that the sender and receiver agreements are active and correctly configured.
    3. Check Backend System Logs:

      • In the SAP backend system (e.g., ERP or CRM), check the application logs (transaction SLG1) or workflow logs for errors related to the order ID &2.
      • Verify that the business process instance exists and is in a valid state to be confirmed.
    4. Resend or Reprocess the Message:

      • If the message failed due to transient errors, try resending the message from the PI/PO system.
      • If the message is stuck, consider deleting and recreating the message or restarting the integration process.
    5. Check Network and System Availability:

      • Ensure that the PI/PO system and backend systems are up and reachable.
      • Check for any network issues or system downtimes.
    6. Authorization Checks:

      • Verify that the user or system ID used for the proxy call has the necessary authorizations.
