  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPSOR004 - Task list &1: no conversion rule found for work center &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WPSOR004 Task list &1: no conversion rule found for work center &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs during the conversion or migration of task lists (e.g., from an older system or during a system upgrade) when the system tries to convert or map a work center but cannot find a corresponding conversion rule for the specified work center.

    • Task list &1: The task list number or identifier being processed.
    • Work center &2: The work center for which no conversion rule exists.

    In other words, the system is trying to convert or interpret the work center data in the task list, but there is no defined rule or mapping that tells the system how to handle this particular work center during the conversion process.


    When does this occur?

    • During system upgrades or migrations involving task lists.
    • When using conversion tools or programs that require mapping old work centers to new ones.
    • When importing or copying task lists between clients or systems.
    • When the customizing for work center conversion rules is incomplete or missing.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Check Conversion Rules:

      • Go to the customizing transaction for work center conversion rules.
      • In SAP, this is usually maintained under:
        • SPRO ? Logistics - General ? Work Center ? Conversion Rules for Work Centers
      • Verify if there is a conversion rule defined for the work center &2 mentioned in the error.
      • If missing, create or maintain the appropriate conversion rule.
    2. Maintain Work Center Mapping:

      • If you are migrating or converting data, ensure that all old work centers have corresponding new work centers or conversion rules.
      • This might involve mapping old work center IDs to new ones.
    3. Check Task List Data:

      • Verify the task list &1 to ensure the work center &2 is valid and active.
      • If the work center is obsolete or deleted, update the task list or create a valid work center.
    4. Consult Conversion/Migration Documentation:

      • If you are performing a system upgrade or migration, check the SAP notes or documentation related to task list and work center conversion.
      • Sometimes SAP provides specific notes or tools to handle these conversions.
    5. Debug or Trace:

      • If the problem persists, debugging the conversion program or checking the conversion logs might help identify why the rule is missing.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • CA02 / CA03 - Change / Display Task List
      • CR01 / CR02 / CR03 - Create / Change / Display Work Center
      • SPRO - Customizing (for maintaining conversion rules)
    • SAP Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to task list conversion or work center conversion rules.
    • Conversion Tools:

      • If using SAP standard conversion tools (e.g., during upgrade), ensure all prerequisite customizing is done.

    Summary:

    Aspect Description
    Cause No conversion rule defined for the work center &2 during task list &1 conversion.
    Effect Conversion or migration process fails or cannot proceed for the specified task list/work center.
    Solution Define or maintain the missing conversion rule for the work center in customizing.
    Additional Verify task list and work center validity; consult SAP notes and documentation if needed.

    If you provide the context of the conversion or the transaction you are running, I can help with more specific steps or customizing paths.
