• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS064 - No messages logged ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WS064 No messages logged
  
  Cause:
  The message WS064 No messages logged typically appears in the context of SAP Workflow or when checking workflow logs. It indicates that there are no workflow messages or logs available for the particular workflow instance or object you are trying to view.
  This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  The workflow has not generated any messages or logs yet.
  The workflow instance has not been started or triggered.
  The workflow logs have been deleted or archived.
  You are looking at the wrong workflow instance or object.
  There is a system or authorization issue preventing the display of messages.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve or handle this message, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Verify Workflow Instance:
  
  Ensure that the workflow instance you are checking actually exists and has been started.
  Use transaction SWI1 (Work Item Selection) or SWI2_FREQ (Workflow Log) to find active or completed workflow instances.
  
  
  
  Check Workflow Logs:
  
  Use transaction SWI1 or SWI2_FREQ to check if there are any logs or messages for the workflow instance.
  If no logs are found, the workflow might not have been triggered or processed yet.
  
  
  
  Trigger or Restart Workflow:
  
  If the workflow has not started, trigger it manually or check the event that should start it.
  If the workflow is stuck, consider restarting or resubmitting it.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to view workflow logs and messages.
  Authorization objects like S_WF_WI (Workflow: Work Item) and S_WF_LOG (Workflow: Log) are relevant.
  
  
  
  Check System Logs:
  
  Look into system logs (transaction SM21) or application logs (transaction SLG1) for any errors related to workflow processing.
  
  
  
  Check Workflow Configuration:
  
  Verify that the workflow is correctly configured to generate messages and logs.
  Check if the workflow container and steps are properly set up.
  
  
  
  Archiving or Deletion:
  
  If logs have been archived or deleted, you may not see any messages.
  Check with your Basis or Workflow administrator if logs have been archived.

  SAP Notes:
  
  Check SAP Notes related to workflow logging issues if the problem persists.
  Example: SAP Note 1234567 (hypothetical) might address workflow log visibility.
  
  
  
  Workflow Monitoring:
  
  Regular monitoring of workflows helps prevent issues where no logs are generated.
  Use workflow monitoring tools and alerts to track workflow status.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  WS064 No messages logged means no workflow messages or logs are available for the workflow instance you are trying to view. Verify the workflow instance, ensure it has been triggered, check authorizations, and confirm that logs have not been deleted or archived. Use workflow transactions like SWI1 and SWI2_FREQ to investigate further.
