• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS612 - No communication data found in the global table (internal error) ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WS612 No communication data found in the global table (internal error)
  
  Cause
  This error typically occurs in SAP systems when the communication data required for a particular operation (such as a workflow, RFC call, or dialog communication) is missing or not properly initialized in the global communication table. The global communication table is an internal SAP structure that holds communication parameters (like partner profiles, connection details, or session information) necessary for processing communication between different SAP components or external systems.
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing or incomplete partner profiles or communication parameters.
  Inconsistent or corrupted communication data in the system.
  Issues in workflow or dialog communication where the system expects communication data but finds none.
  Problems in the runtime environment where the communication context is lost or not set.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Partner Profiles and Communication Settings:
  
  Verify that the partner profiles (WE20 for IDocs, SM59 for RFC destinations) are correctly maintained.
  Ensure that all necessary communication parameters are properly configured.
  
  
  
  Review Workflow or Communication Setup:
  
  If the error occurs in a workflow, check the workflow container and communication steps.
  Make sure that the communication data is correctly passed and initialized before the communication step.
  
  
  
  Restart or Refresh Communication Context:
  
  Sometimes, restarting the affected application server or refreshing the communication context can resolve transient issues.
  
  
  
  Check for OSS Notes:
  
  Search SAP OSS Notes for WS612 or related communication errors. SAP may have provided patches or corrections for known issues.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If you have development access, debug the program or function module where the error occurs to identify why the communication data is missing.
  Look into the global communication table (often internal to SAP kernel or specific modules) to see why it is empty or missing entries.
  
  
  
  SAP Support:
  
  If the problem persists and is not resolved by configuration checks, consider raising a support ticket with SAP, providing detailed logs and system information.

  Common Scenarios:
  
  Workflow steps involving communication with external systems.
  RFC calls where the destination is not properly set or missing.
  Dialog or background jobs requiring communication parameters.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes and Documentation:
  
  Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to WS612.
  Review SAP documentation on communication setup and workflow configuration.
  
  
  
  
  Summary:
  
  The WS612 error indicates missing communication data in SAP's internal global table, often due to misconfiguration or missing partner/communication profiles. Verify and correct communication settings, check workflow or RFC configurations, and consult SAP Notes or support if needed.
