  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_ARTICLELIST019 - Object buffering: Object not found ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_ARTICLELIST019 - Object buffering: Object not found


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs when the SAP system tries to access a buffered object (such as a material master, article, or any other business object) that is not available in the buffer. The buffering mechanism is used to improve performance by storing frequently accessed data in memory. If the object is not found in the buffer, it could be due to:

    • The object was never buffered or has been removed from the buffer.
    • The buffer has been invalidated or cleared.
    • The object key used to retrieve the buffered object is incorrect or does not exist.
    • Buffer synchronization issues between different application servers.
    • The object might have been deleted or is not yet created in the system.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Object Existence:

      • Verify that the object (e.g., article, material) actually exists in the database.
      • Use transaction codes like MM03 (for material) or relevant transactions to confirm the object is valid.
    2. Buffer Refresh:

      • Clear or refresh the buffer to ensure the latest data is loaded.
      • Use transaction SMLG to monitor and manage buffer synchronization.
      • You can also use program RSWB_BUFFER_ADMIN or report /SAPAPO/OM_BUFFER_ADMIN (if related to APO) to clear or refresh buffers.
    3. Check Buffer Settings:

      • Review the buffering settings for the object type in transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or relevant customizing.
      • Ensure that buffering is enabled and correctly configured.
    4. Check for Inconsistencies:

      • Run consistency checks on the object data.
      • Check for any recent changes or transports that might have affected the object or buffer.
    5. System Logs and Dumps:

      • Check system logs (SM21) and short dumps (ST22) for related errors.
      • Look for any buffer-related errors or memory issues.
    6. Restart Application Server:

      • In some cases, restarting the application server can help clear stale buffers.
    7. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WRF_ARTICLELIST019 or buffering issues.
      • Apply any relevant patches or corrections.

    Related Information:

    • Buffering in SAP:
      Buffering is a technique to improve performance by storing data in memory. Objects like materials, customers, or articles can be buffered to reduce database access.

    • Types of Buffering:

      • Single-record buffering
      • Generic buffering
      • Full buffering
    • Transactions and Tools:

      • SMLG - Buffer synchronization and monitoring
      • ST02 - Buffer statistics
      • SE11 - Data Dictionary (to check buffering settings)
      • SM21 - System log
      • ST22 - Dump analysis
    • Common Scenarios:

      • In SAP Retail or SAP Fashion Management, article buffering is common. If the article is not found in the buffer, it might be due to replication or master data issues.

    If you provide more context (e.g., module, transaction, or scenario), I can give more tailored advice.
