  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY044 - Promotion &1 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY044 Promotion &1:


    SAP Error Message: WPRO_XI_PROXY044 Promotion &1


    Cause:

    The error WPRO_XI_PROXY044 typically occurs during the processing of a proxy in SAP PI/PO (Process Integration / Process Orchestration) or when using the SAP XI Adapter. The message text usually indicates a problem related to the promotion of a message or a field during proxy processing.

    • "Promotion &1" refers to an issue with promoting a specific field or element (denoted by &1) from the inbound message to the outbound message or context.
    • This error often arises when the system tries to promote a field that does not exist, is incorrectly mapped, or when the data structure does not match the expected format.
    • It can also occur if the proxy runtime cannot find the required data element in the inbound message or if the message context is corrupted.

    Common Causes:

    • Incorrect or missing mapping in the integration scenario.
    • Mismatch between the inbound message structure and the proxy interface.
    • Missing or incorrect configuration in the Integration Directory or ESR (Enterprise Services Repository).
    • The promoted field is not present in the inbound message payload.
    • Issues with the message context or adapter configuration.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Message Mapping:

      • Verify that the mapping between the inbound and outbound messages is correct.
      • Ensure that the field referenced by &1 exists in the inbound message.
      • Correct any mapping errors or missing fields.
    2. Validate Proxy Interface:

      • Confirm that the proxy interface definition matches the actual message structure.
      • Check the data types and elements in the ESR.
    3. Review Integration Directory Configuration:

      • Check the communication channels and receiver determination.
      • Ensure that the correct interface and message types are used.
    4. Check the Payload:

      • Analyze the inbound message payload to confirm the presence of the promoted field.
      • Use transaction SXMB_MONI or the Message Monitor in SAP PI/PO to inspect the message.
    5. Re-generate Proxy Classes:

      • If the proxy interface has changed, regenerate the proxy classes in the SAP backend system.
    6. Check Adapter and Runtime Logs:

      • Look into adapter engine logs and runtime traces for more detailed error information.
    7. Apply SAP Notes:

      • Search for relevant SAP Notes that address this specific error or related proxy promotion issues.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction SXMB_MONI: Monitor messages in SAP PI/PO.
    • Transaction SPROXY: Proxy generation and configuration.
    • Enterprise Services Repository (ESR): Check interface and message definitions.
    • Integration Directory: Check configuration of communication channels and routing.
    • SAP Note search keywords: WPRO_XI_PROXY044, proxy promotion error, SAP PI proxy error.

    If you provide the exact text of the error message (including the value of &1), or the context in which it occurs (e.g., inbound interface, outbound interface, adapter type), I can help you with a more precise diagnosis.


    Summary:

    Aspect Details
