  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_PPW670 - *** Messages for BAPIs ******************* ?

    The SAP error message WRF_PPW670 with the text "* Messages for BAPIs *****" typically appears in the context of Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs) when there are messages (errors, warnings, or information) generated during the execution of a BAPI call.


    Cause

    • WRF_PPW670 is not an error by itself but rather a wrapper or header message indicating that there are messages related to BAPI processing.
    • It usually appears when a BAPI call returns messages that need to be checked and handled.
    • The actual cause lies in the messages returned by the BAPI, which could be:
      • Missing or incorrect input data.
      • Authorization issues.
      • Business logic validations failing.
      • Configuration or master data inconsistencies.
    • The message WRF_PPW670 is often followed by detailed messages that specify the exact problem.

    Solution

    1. Check the detailed BAPI messages:

      • Look at the messages that follow WRF_PPW670 in the log or output.
      • These messages will provide specific information about what went wrong.
    2. Analyze the BAPI return parameter:

      • Most BAPIs return a parameter called RETURN or similar, which contains a table of messages.
      • Inspect this table to find error messages, their types (E=Error, W=Warning, I=Info), and descriptions.
    3. Correct the input data or configuration:

      • Based on the detailed messages, correct the input parameters you are passing to the BAPI.
      • Ensure all mandatory fields are filled correctly.
      • Verify master data and configuration related to the business object.
    4. Check authorizations:

      • Make sure the user executing the BAPI has the necessary authorizations.
    5. Debug if necessary:

      • If the cause is not clear, debug the BAPI call to see where it fails.
      • Check the BAPI implementation for additional validations.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to the specific BAPI and error messages.
      • Sometimes, known issues or patches are documented.

    Related Information

    • BAPI Return Parameter:

      • This parameter contains messages with fields like TYPE, ID, NUMBER, MESSAGE, LOG_NO, LOG_MSG_NO, MESSAGE_V1...MESSAGE_V4.
      • Always check this parameter after a BAPI call to handle errors properly.

      • Purchase order processing (e.g., BAPI_PO_CREATE1, BAPI_PO_CHANGE)
      • Material master updates
      • Sales order processing
    • Transaction / Tools:

      • Use transaction SE37 to test BAPIs and see return messages.
      • Use SLG1 (Application Log) to check logs if the BAPI writes logs.
