  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSFP_MESSAGE031 - Transaction &1 is obsolete. Use transaction WESLOG ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation regarding the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WSFP_MESSAGE031: Transaction &1 is obsolete. Use transaction WESLOG


    Cause:

    This error occurs because the transaction code you are trying to use has been deprecated (obsolete) in the SAP system. SAP has replaced the old transaction with a new one, and the system is informing you to use the updated transaction code instead.

    Specifically, the old transaction code (represented by &1 in the message) is no longer supported, and SAP recommends using the new transaction WESLOG.

    This typically happens in the context of SAP Workflow or SAP Event Management, where older transactions are replaced by newer, more integrated or enhanced transactions.


    Solution:

    • Use the new transaction code WESLOG instead of the obsolete one.
    • If you have custom scripts, user manuals, or training materials referencing the old transaction, update them to reflect the new transaction.
    • If you are calling the obsolete transaction programmatically (e.g., via a custom program, user exit, or workflow), modify the code to call WESLOG instead.
    • If you are unsure about the functionality of WESLOG, check the SAP documentation or use transaction SE93 to display the transaction details and understand its purpose.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction WESLOG is related to SAP Event Management and is used for monitoring and managing events and logs.
    • The obsolescence of transactions is part of SAP's continuous improvement and simplification strategy, where older transactions are replaced by more efficient or integrated ones.
    • You can check the SAP Notes or SAP Help Portal for more details on the transition from the old transaction to WESLOG.
    • If you encounter this message during workflow processing, ensure that your workflow steps are updated to use the new transaction.
    • To find out which transaction is obsolete, look at the message log or the exact message text where &1 will be replaced by the actual transaction code.
