• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS_CWB052 - Status &1 is not assigned to internal status "Logically Deleted" ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WS_CWB052 Status &1 is not assigned to internal status "Logically Deleted"
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a status that is not assigned or allowed for the internal status "Logically Deleted" is being used or processed in a workflow or status management scenario. In SAP, statuses are managed with internal statuses (like "Logically Deleted") and external statuses (custom or standard statuses). Each internal status has a set of allowed external statuses assigned to it.
  If a status code (represented by &1 in the message) is not assigned to the internal status "Logically Deleted" in the status profile or configuration, and the system tries to set or process this status, the error WS_CWB052 is triggered.
  
  Where it typically occurs:
  
  In Business Workflow (WS = Workflow System)
  When changing or processing object statuses in status management (e.g., in CRM, PM, or other modules using status profiles)
  During logical deletion or status changes of business objects
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Status Profile Configuration:
  
  Go to the status profile assigned to the object type.
  Use transaction BS02 (Change Status Profile) or BS03 (Display Status Profile).
  Find the internal status "Logically Deleted" (usually internal status code is fixed).
  Verify which external statuses are assigned to this internal status.
  If the status &1 (the status code from the error message) is missing, assign it to the internal status "Logically Deleted".
  
  
  
  Adjust Status Assignment:
  
  Add the missing status to the internal status "Logically Deleted" in the status profile.
  Save and activate the status profile.
  
  
  
  Check Workflow or Program Logic:
  
  If the status &1 should not be assigned to "Logically Deleted", check the workflow or program logic that triggers this status change.
  Correct the logic to assign a valid status for the internal status "Logically Deleted".
  
  
  
  Transport Changes:
  
  If changes are made in a development system, ensure they are transported to quality and production systems.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Internal Statuses are system-defined and represent the logical state of an object (e.g., Created, Released, Logically Deleted).
  External Statuses are user-defined and mapped to internal statuses.
  The error message is part of the Workflow System (WS) and status management.
  Logical deletion means the object is flagged as deleted but not physically removed from the database.
  Proper status assignment ensures consistent business process handling and prevents invalid status transitions.
