  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WU006 - Every language key entered must be assigned a text ?

    The SAP error message WU006 ("Every language key entered must be assigned a text") typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a record that requires language-specific texts, but one or more language keys have been entered without corresponding text entries. This is common in scenarios involving master data, such as material master records, customer/vendor master records, or other objects that require multilingual support.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Text Entries: You have entered a language key (e.g., 'EN' for English, 'DE' for German) but have not provided the corresponding text for that language.
    2. Incorrect Language Key: The language key entered may not be valid or recognized by the system.
    3. Incomplete Data Entry: The data entry process may have been interrupted or incomplete, leading to missing text for one or more languages.

    Solution:

    1. Check Language Keys: Ensure that all language keys entered in the relevant fields have corresponding text entries. If you have entered a language key, make sure to fill in the text field associated with that key.
    2. Add Missing Texts: Go back to the relevant screen where you are entering the data and provide the necessary text for each language key. If you do not have a translation for a specific language, you may need to enter a placeholder or a default text.
    3. Review Data Entry: Double-check your data entry for any typos or errors in the language keys. Ensure that they conform to the expected format.
    4. Use Default Language: If you are unsure about providing texts for multiple languages, consider using the default language of your SAP system for the initial entry and then add translations later.
    5. Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the required fields or the process, refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on the specific transaction or module you are working with.
