    Cause

    The error WRF_FOLUPART011 typically occurs when there is a problem initializing or setting up the SAP GUI grid control (a UI element used in SAP screens to display tabular data). This can be due to:

    • Missing or corrupted SAP GUI components or controls on the client side.

    • Insufficient permissions or security settings preventing the grid control from loading.
    • Problems with the SAP GUI scripting or frontend components.

    Solution

    To resolve the WRF_FOLUPART011 error, try the following steps:

    1. Check SAP GUI Installation:

      • Ensure that the SAP GUI is properly installed and updated to the latest patch level compatible with your SAP backend.
      • Reinstall or repair the SAP GUI installation if necessary.
    2. Register ActiveX Controls / DLLs:

      • On Windows clients, the SAP GUI grid control relies on certain ActiveX controls or DLLs.
      • Run the SAP GUI installation as Administrator to ensure all components are registered.
      • Manually register DLLs if needed (e.g., sapfewse.ocx or other SAP GUI related controls) using regsvr32.
    3. Check SAP GUI Options:

      • In SAP GUI, go to Options ? Accessibility & Scripting ? Scripting and ensure scripting is enabled if required.
      • Also check Options ? Visual Design ? Controls to verify grid control settings.
    4. Clear SAP GUI Cache:

      • Sometimes clearing the SAP GUI cache helps.
      • Delete the contents of the %APPDATA%\SAP\Common folder and restart SAP GUI.
    5. Check User Permissions:

      • Ensure the user has sufficient permissions on the local machine to load ActiveX controls.
      • Check Windows security settings or antivirus software that might block ActiveX controls.
    6. Use a Different SAP GUI Version:

      • If the problem persists, try using a different SAP GUI version (either newer or older) to check for compatibility issues.
    7. Backend Support:

      • Verify that the backend system supports the grid control features used by the frontend.
      • Check OSS notes or SAP support portal for any known issues related to your SAP system version.
