    Error Message

    WTADDI408: Required parameters missing when calling up module &


    Cause

    This error occurs in SAP Workflow when a workflow container or a method/module is called, but the required input parameters for that module are not provided or are missing. The placeholder "&" in the message is replaced by the name of the module or method being called.

    In other words, the workflow step expects certain parameters to be passed to the called module, but these parameters are either not filled, incorrectly mapped, or missing entirely.

    Common causes include:

    • Incorrect or incomplete container element mapping in the workflow step.
    • Missing or incorrect binding of parameters in the workflow definition.
    • The called method or function module requires mandatory parameters that are not supplied.
    • Changes in the interface of the called module without updating the workflow container or bindings.

    Solution

    To resolve this error, follow these steps:

    1. Identify the Module Name:

      • Check the exact module or method name in the error message (the "&" will be replaced by the actual module name).
      • This helps you know which module is missing parameters.
    2. Check Workflow Step Container Bindings:

      • Go to the workflow builder (transaction SWDD).
      • Open the workflow and locate the step where the error occurs.
      • Check the container elements and their bindings for the step.
      • Ensure that all required parameters for the module are correctly mapped from the workflow container or are provided as constants.
    3. Check the Module Interface:

      • Look at the interface of the called method or function module.
      • Identify which parameters are mandatory.
      • Verify that these parameters are available in the workflow container and correctly bound.
    4. Adjust Container Elements or Bindings:

      • If parameters are missing, add the necessary container elements.
      • Bind the container elements to the input parameters of the module.
      • If the parameters are constants or fixed values, provide them accordingly.
    5. Test the Workflow:

      • After correcting the bindings, test the workflow again.
      • Ensure that the error no longer occurs.
    6. Check for Interface Changes:

      • If the module interface was recently changed (e.g., new parameters added), update the workflow accordingly.

    Additional Information

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SWDD - Workflow Builder (to edit and check workflow steps and container).
      • SWI1 - Workflow log (to analyze workflow errors).
      • SE37 - Function module test (to check module interface).
      • SE80 - Object Navigator (to check classes and methods).
    • Related Notes and Documentation:

      • SAP Notes related to workflow container and parameter binding issues.
      • SAP Help Portal on Workflow container and binding concepts.
    • Best Practices:

      • Always keep workflow container elements and bindings in sync with the called module interfaces.
      • Use meaningful container element names.
      • Document any interface changes and update workflows accordingly.

    If you provide the exact module name or workflow context, I can help you with more specific guidance.
