    SAP Error Message:
    WXP045 - Incorrect parameters when calling Business Document Service


    Cause:

    The error WXP045 typically occurs when the Business Document Service (BDS) is called with incorrect or incomplete parameters. This can happen due to:

    • Missing mandatory parameters in the function/module call.
    • Incorrect data types or formats passed to the BDS interface.
    • Inconsistent or invalid document identifiers or object keys.
    • Programming errors in custom code or enhancements that invoke BDS.
    • Issues in the integration scenario where the BDS is used (e.g., workflow, document management).

    Explanation:

    The Business Document Service (BDS) in SAP is used to manage business documents and attachments. When a program calls BDS APIs (such as BDS_DOCUMENT_CREATE, BDS_DOCUMENT_GET, etc.), it must provide correct parameters like document type, document ID, object type, and other relevant keys.

    If these parameters are incorrect or missing, the BDS cannot process the request, resulting in the WXP045 error.


    Solution:

    1. Check the Parameters Passed:

      • Verify that all mandatory parameters required by the BDS function/module are provided.
      • Ensure the parameters have the correct data types and formats.
      • Confirm that document IDs and object keys exist and are valid in the system.
    2. Review Custom Code or Enhancements:

      • If the error occurs in custom developments, debug the code to check the values passed to BDS.
      • Use breakpoints in the BDS function modules to inspect incoming parameters.
    3. Use Standard SAP Tools:

      • Use transaction SBWP (SAP Business Workplace) or OAWD (Document Management) to check if the document exists and is accessible.
      • Use transaction SOST or SLG1 to check for related logs or errors.
    4. Check SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to WXP045 for any known issues or patches.
      • Review SAP Help Portal documentation on Business Document Service for correct usage.
    5. Example Parameter Check:

      • For example, when calling BDS_DOCUMENT_CREATE, ensure parameters like DOCUMENT_TYPE, DOCUMENT_ID, OBJECT_TYPE, and OBJECT_ID are correctly filled.

    Related Information:
