  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRBA008 - No exception handling ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WRBA008 - No exception handling


    Cause:

    The error message WRBA008 - No exception handling typically occurs in SAP when the system encounters a situation where an exception handling routine or rule is expected but not defined or maintained. This often happens in the context of bank communication, payment medium programs, or payment processing where the system tries to handle exceptions (e.g., errors, warnings, or special cases) but cannot find the corresponding exception handling configuration.

    In other words, the system is trying to process an exception scenario but there is no exception handling procedure or rule assigned/configured for that particular case.


    Common Scenarios:

    • During payment medium generation (e.g., payment files for banks).
    • When processing bank statements or electronic bank communication.
    • In customizing of payment program or bank communication where exception handling is required but missing.
    • When a specific exception code or condition is triggered but no handler is maintained.

    Solution:

    1. Check Exception Handling Configuration:

      • Go to the relevant customizing transaction (depending on the module, e.g., FI, TR, or payment medium customizing).
      • For payment medium programs, check the exception handling rules in the customizing path:
        • SPRO ? Financial Accounting ? Accounts Payable/Receivable ? Automatic Payment ? Payment Medium ? Define Exception Handling
      • Ensure that the exception handling procedures are properly defined and assigned to the relevant payment methods, banks, or payment medium formats.
    2. Maintain Exception Handling Procedures:

      • If missing, create or assign the appropriate exception handling procedures.
      • Exception handling procedures define how the system should behave when certain exceptions occur (e.g., skip payment, block payment, generate warning).
    3. Check Payment Medium Program Customizing:

      • Verify that the payment medium program (e.g., for SEPA, DME, or other formats) has the correct exception handling routines assigned.
      • Sometimes, custom payment medium programs require specific exception handling logic.
    4. Review the Exception Code or Scenario:

      • Identify which exception or error condition triggered the message.
      • Check if the exception code is maintained in the system and linked to a handling procedure.
    5. Debugging (if necessary):

      • If the cause is unclear, debugging the payment medium program or bank communication program can help identify where the exception handling is missing.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • FBZP - Automatic Payment Program customizing.
      • OT83 - Define Exception Handling (for payment medium).
      • SE38 or SA38 - To run or debug payment medium programs.
    • SAP Notes:

      • Check SAP Notes related to payment medium errors or exception handling for your specific SAP version.
    • Documentation:

      • SAP Help Portal documentation on Automatic Payment Program and Payment Medium.
      • SAP Library ? Financial Accounting ? Accounts Payable ? Automatic Payment ? Payment Medium.

    Summary:

    • Cause: Missing or undefined exception handling procedure for a triggered exception during payment or bank communication processing.
    • Solution: Define and assign the appropriate exception handling procedures in customizing for the payment medium or bank communication scenario.
    • Check: Payment medium customizing, exception handling definitions, and payment program assignments.
