  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_AT_GENERATE029 - No text exists in language &1 for allocation table type &2 ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_AT_GENERATE029 No text exists in language &1 for allocation table type &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when the system tries to generate or display an allocation table type, but it cannot find the corresponding descriptive text in the specified language (&1) for the allocation table type (&2).

    In other words, the allocation table type exists, but the language-dependent text (description) for that allocation table type is missing in the system for the language you are using.


    Common Scenarios:

    • You are working with allocation tables (e.g., in cost allocation, settlement, or other controlling processes).
    • The system tries to display or process an allocation table type.
    • The text description for that allocation table type in the user’s logon language is not maintained.
    • This can happen after a system copy, transport, or if the customizing for allocation table types is incomplete.

    Cause:

    • Missing language-dependent text for the allocation table type in the customizing.
    • The allocation table type is defined, but the description in the user’s logon language is not maintained.
    • Possibly the language is not supported or the text was not transported properly.

    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check Allocation Table Type Texts:

      • Go to the customizing transaction for allocation table types.
      • Transaction path (example):
        SPRO -> Controlling -> Cost Center Accounting -> Planning -> Allocation -> Define Allocation Table Types
      • Or directly use transaction OKKN (depending on your SAP version and module).
    2. Maintain Texts in Required Languages:

      • Select the allocation table type &2.
      • Maintain the short and long texts in the required language &1 (the language code from the error message).
      • Save the changes.
    3. Transport the Changes:

      • If you are in a development system, transport the changes to quality and production systems.
    4. Check User Logon Language:

      • Verify the user’s logon language.
      • If the language is not supported or texts are missing, either maintain the texts or switch to a supported language.
    5. Check for OSS Notes:

      • Sometimes SAP releases notes related to missing texts or language support.
      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WRF_AT_GENERATE029.

    Additional Information:

    • Allocation table types are used in various controlling and planning functions.
    • Language-dependent texts are stored in customizing tables and must be maintained for all languages used in the system.
    • Missing texts do not usually stop processing but can cause display or generation errors.
    • Always ensure that customizing is complete and consistent across all languages used.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error No text exists in language &1 for allocation table type &2
    Cause Missing language-dependent text for allocation table type
    Solution Maintain the text for the allocation table type in the required language via customizing (SPRO or OKKN)
    Transaction OKKN (or relevant customizing path)
    Notes Check SAP OSS notes for related fixes or updates

    If you need help with the exact customizing path or transaction depending on your SAP module/version, please provide more details about your SAP system (e.g., ECC or S/4HANA, module involved).
