    SAP Error Message: WTADDI_APPL008

    Message Text:
    &1 additionals with &2 lines of additional text prepared for postings


    1. Cause

    This message typically appears in the context of SAP Treasury and Risk Management (TRM) or Financial Accounting (FI) when additional text lines are prepared for postings. The placeholders &1 and &2 represent:

    • &1: The number of additional text entries or "additionals"
    • &2: The number of lines of additional text prepared

    The message is informational but can appear as a warning or error depending on the context or custom message control settings.

    Why does it occur?

    • When posting financial documents or treasury transactions, SAP allows attaching additional text lines (e.g., explanations, notes).
    • The system prepares these additional texts for inclusion in the posting.
    • The message informs the user or the system that a certain number of additional texts and lines have been prepared.
    • If the message appears unexpectedly or blocks processing, it might be due to configuration or user exit/custom code that treats this informational message as an error.

    2. Solution

    • If the message is informational and does not block processing:

      No action is needed. This message simply informs you that additional text lines have been prepared for the posting.

    • If the message appears as an error or warning and blocks processing:

      • Check the message control settings in the relevant application area (e.g., Treasury posting, FI document posting).
      • Adjust the message type from Error (E) or Warning (W) to Information (I) if appropriate.
      • Review any user exits, BADIs, or custom code that might be raising this message as an error.
      • Verify the additional text configuration in the customizing (e.g., transaction OT83 for text types, or Treasury text configuration).
      • Ensure that the additional text lines are correctly formatted and do not exceed allowed limits.
    • If additional text lines are not required:

      • You can disable or skip the additional text preparation in the posting process by adjusting the configuration or user exit logic.

    3. Related Information

    • Transaction Codes:

      • OT83 - Maintain Text Types (for Treasury)
      • FBL3N / FB03 - Display FI documents with texts
      • Treasury posting transactions (e.g., FTR_CREATE, FTR_EDIT)
    • SAP Notes:

      • These texts are stored in text tables and linked to the document.
      • Proper configuration ensures that texts are correctly handled during posting and reporting.
    • Debugging:

      • If the message causes issues, debug the program or user exit where the message is raised.
