  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_CHAR002 - No Variant find with provided parameter ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WRF_CHAR002 No Variant find with provided parameter


    Cause:

    This error occurs when a report, transaction, or program tries to execute or reference a variant (a saved set of selection screen parameters) that does not exist or cannot be found with the parameters provided. Essentially, the system is looking for a variant name or variant parameters that are not available in the database or are incorrectly specified.

    Common scenarios include:

    • The variant name passed to the program is incorrect or misspelled.
    • The variant has been deleted or not created yet.
    • The variant is client-specific and is being accessed from a different client.
    • The program expects a variant with certain parameters, but none matches the criteria.

    Solution:

    1. Check Variant Name:
      Verify that the variant name passed to the program or transaction is correct and exists in the system. You can check variants in transaction SE38 or SA38 by selecting the program and then choosing the "Variants" button.

    2. Create or Recreate Variant:
      If the variant does not exist, create a new variant with the required parameters.

      • Go to the program in SE38 or SA38.
      • Enter the program name and click on "Variants".
      • Create a new variant with the necessary selection criteria.
    3. Check Client-Specific Variants:
      Variants are client-specific. Ensure you are logged into the correct client where the variant exists.

    4. Check Program or Custom Code:
      If the variant name is passed dynamically via custom code or a wrapper program, debug or review the code to ensure the correct variant name is passed.

    5. Authorization:
      Ensure the user has authorization to access the variant.


    Related Information:

    • Transaction to Manage Variants:
      • SE38 / SA38 (ABAP Editor / Execute Program)
      • SHD0 (Transaction variant maintenance)
    • Variant Table:
      • VARID (Variant header)
      • VARI (Variant values)
    • SAP Notes:
      Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WRF_CHAR002 for any specific patches or known issues.

    Summary:

    The error WRF_CHAR002 No Variant find with provided parameter means the system cannot find the variant specified. Verify the variant name, create it if missing, check client and authorization, and ensure the program or transaction is correctly referencing the variant.


    If you provide the context (program name, transaction, or scenario), I can help with more specific steps.
