  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_AT_GENERATE112 - Only use grouping criterion EKG together with EKORG ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_AT_GENERATE112: Only use grouping criterion EKG together with EKORG


    Cause:

    This error occurs during the generation of a report or data extraction (often in Logistics or Purchasing modules) when the grouping criteria used in the selection or report definition are inconsistent or invalid.

    • EKG refers to Purchasing Group.
    • EKORG refers to Purchasing Organization.

    The system requires that if you use the grouping criterion EKG (Purchasing Group), you must also use EKORG (Purchasing Organization) as a grouping criterion simultaneously. Using EKG alone without EKORG is not allowed because the purchasing group is only meaningful within the context of a purchasing organization.


    Explanation:

    • Purchasing Group (EKG) is a sub-entity under Purchasing Organization (EKORG).
    • Grouping or filtering by purchasing group without specifying the purchasing organization can lead to ambiguous or inconsistent data.
    • The system enforces this rule to ensure data integrity and meaningful grouping.

    Solution:

    • When defining your report, query, or data extraction, always include EKORG (Purchasing Organization) as a grouping criterion if you want to use EKG (Purchasing Group).
    • Adjust your selection or grouping criteria to include both EKORG and EKG.
    • If you do not want to group by purchasing organization, then remove the purchasing group (EKG) from the grouping criteria.

    How to fix in practice:

    1. Check your report or query definition (e.g., in SAP Query, ABAP report, or BW extraction).
    2. Locate the grouping criteria or selection parameters.
    3. Add EKORG to the grouping criteria if EKG is present.
    4. Test the report or extraction again.

    Related Information:

    • This error is common in reports or extractions involving purchasing data (e.g., Purchase Orders, Purchase Requisitions).
    • The error message is a safeguard to prevent inconsistent grouping.
    • Similar grouping dependencies exist in other SAP modules where hierarchical organizational units are involved.
    • If you are customizing or developing reports, always check the hierarchy and dependencies of organizational units.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WRF_AT_GENERATE112
    Message Only use grouping criterion EKG together with EKORG
    Cause Using Purchasing Group (EKG) without Purchasing Organization (EKORG) in grouping criteria

    If you need help adjusting a specific report or query, please provide more details about the context (transaction, report name, or extraction tool).
