  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP448 - Enter &1 &2 in target version in the hierarchy ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WXP448:


    SAP Error Message: WXP448

    Message Text:
    Enter &1 &2 in target version in the hierarchy


    1. Cause

    This error occurs in the context of SAP Workflow version management, specifically when you are trying to activate or transport workflow objects (like tasks, events, or workflows) that are part of a version hierarchy.

    • The message indicates that a required object (denoted by placeholders &1 and &2, typically object type and object name) is missing in the target version of the workflow hierarchy.
    • In SAP Workflow, objects can have multiple versions organized in a hierarchy (e.g., main version and sub-versions).
    • When you try to activate or transport a workflow object, all related objects in the version hierarchy must be present in the target version.
    • If a dependent object is missing in the target version, the system prompts you to enter or create it to maintain consistency.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the error WXP448, follow these steps:

    • Identify the missing object:
      The message will specify the object type (&1) and the object name (&2) that needs to be entered in the target version.

    • Enter or create the missing object in the target version:

      • Go to the Workflow Builder (transaction SWDD).
      • Switch to the target version of the workflow or object.
      • Create or copy the missing object into this version.
    • Check the version hierarchy:
      Ensure that all related workflow objects (tasks, events, container elements) exist in the target version.

    • Activate the objects:
      After entering the missing object, activate it in the target version.

    • Reattempt the operation:
      Retry the activation or transport process that initially triggered the error.
