• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_ARTICLE_SCREENS085 - Scientific name code &1 for fiber code &2 not defined in customizing ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_ARTICLE_SCREENS085
  
  Scientific name code &1 for fiber code &2 not defined in customizing
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs because the system expects a scientific name code associated with a particular fiber code to be defined in the customizing settings, but it cannot find this definition.
  
  In SAP Textile and Apparel (or related industry solutions), fibers are often classified with codes.
  Each fiber code can have one or more scientific name codes linked to it.
  The system uses these codes for material master data, quality management, or production processes.
  If a scientific name code is missing for a fiber code in the customizing tables, the system throws this error when processing related transactions (e.g., article creation, material master updates, or quality inspections).
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to define the missing scientific name code for the fiber code in the customizing settings.
  Steps:
  
  
  Identify the codes:
  
  From the error message, note the fiber code (&2) and the scientific name code (&1) that are missing.
  
  
  
  Access Customizing:
  
  Use transaction code SPRO to open the SAP Reference IMG.
  Navigate to the relevant customizing path for fibers and scientific names. This path may vary depending on your SAP module/version, but typically it is under:
  Logistics - General > Textile and Apparel > Basic Data > Fibers > Define Scientific Names for Fibers
  
  Or, if you are using SAP S/4HANA or a specific industry solution, check the documentation for the exact IMG path.
  
  
  
  Define the missing entry:
  
  In the customizing table, create a new entry linking the fiber code (&2) with the scientific name code (&1).
  Save and transport the changes if necessary.
  
  
  
  Verify:
  
  Retry the transaction that caused the error.
  The system should now recognize the scientific name code for the fiber code and proceed without error.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Tables involved:
  
  The customizing data is often stored in tables like T6FIB (Fibers) and related tables for scientific names, but this depends on your SAP version and industry solution.
  
  
  Impact:
  
  Missing scientific name codes can affect:
  
  Material master data consistency.
  Quality inspection processes.
  Reporting and classification of textile materials.
  
  
  
  Additional checks:  
  
  Ensure that the fiber code itself is correctly defined.
  Check if any user exits or BAdIs are validating these codes and causing the error.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes:
  
  If the problem persists, check SAP Notes or OSS messages for your SAP version related to fiber and scientific name customizing.
