  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSFP_MESSAGE010 - Error converting language &1 ?

    The SAP error message:

    WSFP_MESSAGE010: Error converting language &1


    Cause:

    This error typically occurs during workflow processing when the system tries to convert or interpret a language key (language code) that is either invalid, not recognized, or not properly maintained in the system. The placeholder &1 represents the language code that caused the issue.

    Common causes include:

    • The language code passed to the workflow or function module is incorrect or does not exist in the SAP system.
    • The language is not installed or supported in the SAP system.
    • Data inconsistencies where language-dependent texts or objects are missing for the specified language.
    • Issues in the workflow container or in the language conversion routines.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Language Code:

      • Verify the language code passed in the workflow or program. It should be a valid SAP language key (e.g., EN, DE, FR).
      • You can check valid language keys in table T002 (Language Codes).
    2. Verify Language Installation:

      • Ensure that the language is installed and supported in your SAP system.
      • Use transaction SMLT to check installed languages.
    3. Check Workflow Container and Data:

      • Review the workflow container elements or the data being passed to the workflow step that triggers this error.
      • Make sure that language-dependent texts or objects exist for the language in question.
    4. Check for Missing Translations:

      • If the workflow or application tries to fetch texts in a language that is not maintained, maintain the missing translations or fallback to a default language.
    5. Debug or Trace:

      • Use transaction SWI1 (Workflow Logs) to find the exact step where the error occurs.
      • Debug the workflow or program to see where the language conversion fails.
    6. SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for relevant SAP Notes using the error message or keywords.
      • Sometimes, patches or corrections are available if this is a known issue.

    Related Information:

    • Table T002: Contains all valid language keys in SAP.
    • Transaction SMLT: Language installation and management.
    • Workflow Logs (SWI1): To analyze workflow errors.
    • Function Modules: Language conversion often uses function modules like CONVERSION_EXIT_LANG_INPUT or similar.
    • SAP Help: Language handling in workflows and applications.

    If you provide the exact language code causing the error or the context (e.g., which workflow or program), more specific guidance can be given.
