• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTY15103 - No F4 help possible, object number copied ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WTY15103 No F4 help possible, object number copied
  
  Cause:
  This message typically occurs in SAP when you try to use the F4 help (value help or search help) for an object number field, but the system cannot provide any F4 help because the object number has been copied from another source or context where the F4 help is not available or applicable.
  In other words, the system recognizes that the object number was copied (e.g., from another document or screen), and therefore disables the F4 help to avoid inconsistencies or invalid selections.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Object Number: This usually refers to a unique identifier for an object in SAP, such as a maintenance order number, equipment number, functional location, or similar.
  F4 Help: The F4 key in SAP provides a search help or value help dialog to assist users in selecting valid entries.
  When the object number is copied (e.g., pasted or transferred from another screen or document), the system assumes the user already has a valid number and disables the F4 help to prevent changing it accidentally.
  This is a safeguard to maintain data integrity.
  
  
  Solution / How to Handle:
  
  
  Manual Entry or Clear Field:  
  
  If you want to use F4 help, clear the copied object number field first, then press F4 to get the value help.
  After selecting the correct object number from the F4 help, proceed.
  
  
  
  Check the Context:  
  
  Ensure that the object number you copied is valid for the current transaction or screen.
  If the object number is invalid or from a different context, you may need to enter a new valid number manually or use F4 help after clearing the field.
  
  
  
  Avoid Copy-Pasting if F4 Help is Needed:  
  
  Instead of copying the object number from another source, use the F4 help to select the object number to ensure correctness.
  
  
  
  Technical/Configuration:  
  
  If this behavior is undesirable, a developer or SAP consultant can check the search help assignment or screen logic to see if the F4 help can be enabled even when the object number is copied.
  This might involve debugging or adjusting the screen field attributes or search help exit logic.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  This message is informational and not an error that stops processing; it just informs the user that F4 help is not available in this context.
  It is common in maintenance order processing, equipment master, or other object-related transactions.
  The message ID is usually WTY (related to Plant Maintenance or Work Order processing).
  If you frequently need F4 help after copying, consider process changes or user training to avoid confusion.
