• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSUBST025 - Parameter &1 not filled ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WSUBST025: Parameter &1 not filled:
  
  Error Message
  WSUBST025: Parameter &1 not filled
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when a required parameter in a substitution rule or condition is not provided or left empty. In SAP, substitution rules often require certain parameters to be filled to execute correctly. If a parameter that is mandatory for the substitution logic is missing, the system raises this error.
  Typically, this happens in:
  
  Substitution rules in Financial Accounting (FI), especially in document splitting or account assignment substitutions.
  When defining or executing substitution logic, the system expects certain input parameters to be filled.
  The parameter referenced by &1 (which will be replaced by the actual parameter name in the message) is empty or missing.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Identify the missing parameter:
  
  Check the substitution rule or condition where the error occurs.
  The message will replace &1 with the actual parameter name, so note which parameter is missing.
  
  
  
  Fill the required parameter:
  
  Go to the substitution rule in transaction GGB0 (Substitutions in Financial Accounting).
  Review the substitution logic and ensure all required parameters are correctly filled.
  If the substitution is triggered by a user input or a program, ensure that the input screen or interface provides the necessary parameter.
  
  
  
  Check the substitution condition:
  
  Sometimes the condition for substitution might be too restrictive or incorrectly defined, causing parameters not to be set.
  Adjust the condition or the substitution logic to ensure parameters are assigned properly.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the cause is not obvious, debug the substitution routine or user exit to see why the parameter is not being filled.
  Use transaction GGB0 to check the substitution and then debug the substitution logic.

  OB28 - Substitutions and Validations (FI)
  OB08 - Exchange Rate Substitutions (if related)
  
  
  
  Substitution and Validation Framework:
  
  Substitutions are used to automatically fill or change field values during document posting.
  Validations check data correctness and can also trigger errors if conditions are not met.
  
  
  
  Common scenarios:
  
  Missing cost center, profit center, or segment in FI document line items.
  Missing parameters in user-defined substitution routines.
  
  
  
  
  Summary
  
  Cause: A required parameter in a substitution rule is not filled.
  Solution: Identify the missing parameter and ensure it is properly filled in the substitution logic or input.
  Check: Substitution rules in GGB0, conditions, and user exits.
  Debug: If necessary, debug the substitution routine to find why the parameter is missing.
