  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI445 - External method &1 is not assigned to internal method &2 ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WTADDI445 External method &1 is not assigned to internal method &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs in the context of SAP Workflow when there is a mismatch or missing assignment between an external method and an internal method in the workflow container or task definition.

    • External method: This is the method defined in the workflow container or task interface that is visible outside the workflow.
    • Internal method: This is the method implemented inside the workflow or the underlying object.

    The error indicates that the workflow engine is trying to call an external method (parameter &1) which has not been properly linked or assigned to the corresponding internal method (parameter &2). This usually happens when:

    • The workflow container element or task interface has been changed but the method assignment has not been updated.
    • There is a mismatch in method names or the method assignment is missing.
    • The workflow task or container is incorrectly configured.

    Where it occurs:

    • During workflow execution or activation.
    • When a workflow step tries to call a method on an object or container element.
    • In workflow task definitions or container element assignments.

    How to solve:

    1. Check the Workflow Task or Container Definition:

      • Go to the workflow builder (transaction SWDD).
      • Open the relevant workflow or task.
      • Check the container elements and their method assignments.
      • Verify that the external method (the one visible in the container or task interface) is correctly assigned to the internal method (the actual method implemented in the object or class).
    2. Verify Method Names:

      • Ensure that the method names are spelled correctly and consistently.
      • Check for case sensitivity or typographical errors.
    3. Reassign the Methods:

      • If the assignment is missing, assign the external method to the correct internal method.
      • Save and activate the workflow/task.
    4. Check Object Interfaces:

      • If the workflow uses object methods, verify that the object interface and its methods are correctly defined and assigned.
    5. Transport and Version Consistency:

      • If the workflow was transported from another system, ensure that all related objects (classes, interfaces, workflows) are consistent and active.
    6. Use SAP Standard Tools:

      • Use transaction SWUS (Workflow Object Builder) to check and maintain method assignments.
      • Use transaction SWI1 to analyze workflow logs for more details.

    Additional Information:

    • This error is related to the internal workings of SAP Business Workflow.
    • It is important to maintain consistency between the workflow container elements and the underlying object methods.
    • Changes in the workflow container or task interface require corresponding updates in method assignments.
    • If you recently changed the workflow or task interface, re-check all method assignments.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WTADDI445 External method &1 is not assigned to internal method &2
    Cause Missing or incorrect assignment between external and internal methods in workflow task/container
    Solution Check and assign the external method to the correct internal method in workflow builder
    Tools SWDD (Workflow Builder), SWUS (Workflow Object Builder), SWI1 (Workflow Log)

    If you provide the exact method names (&1 and &2) from the error message, I can help you with more specific guidance.
