    The SAP error message:

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Workflow (WRF = Workflow Runtime Framework). This error indicates that an internal problem happened during the execution of a workflow action.


    Cause

    • Internal runtime error in workflow action processing: The error message suggests that while the workflow runtime was trying to process a specific action (the placeholder &1 is replaced by the action name or ID), an unexpected internal error occurred.
    • Possible reasons include:
      • Incorrect or inconsistent workflow configuration.
      • Missing or incorrect implementation of the method or function module assigned to the workflow action.
      • Authorization issues or missing objects required by the action.
      • System inconsistencies or bugs in the workflow runtime.
      • Problems in the underlying business object method or event triggered by the workflow action.
      • Transport or system inconsistencies after applying patches or upgrades.

    Solution

    1. Check the exact action causing the error:

      • The message contains the action name or ID in place of &1.

      • Analyze the workflow log to get more details about the error.
    2. Analyze the workflow action:

      • Go to transaction PFTC (Task Maintenance) and check the task and the method or function module assigned to the action.
      • Verify that the method or function module exists and is active.
      • Check the implementation of the method for any runtime errors.
    3. Check authorizations:

      • Ensure that the user executing the workflow has the necessary authorizations to execute the action.
    4. Debug the workflow:

      • Use transaction SWUD or SWI1 to debug the workflow.
      • Set breakpoints in the method or function module assigned to the action to identify the exact cause.
