  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZ093 - Specify a report ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WZ093 - Specify a report


    Cause:

    The message WZ093 - Specify a report typically occurs when a required report program name has not been entered or specified in a transaction or configuration step where SAP expects a report to be defined. This often happens in scenarios involving variant management, batch input sessions, or custom transaction setups where the system needs to know which report to execute but the field is left blank.


    When does it occur?

    • When creating or executing a variant or batch input session without specifying the report program.
    • During configuration or customization steps where a report name must be assigned.
    • In custom developments or user exits where a report name parameter is mandatory but missing.

    Solution:

    1. Specify the Report Name:

      • Go to the screen or configuration step where the error occurs.
      • Enter the correct report program name in the field that requires it.
      • The report name should be a valid SAP report (usually starting with R or Z/Y for custom reports).
    2. Check Variant or Batch Input Setup:

      • If working with variants or batch input sessions, ensure the report program is correctly assigned.
      • Use transaction codes like SE38 or SA38 to verify the report exists.
    3. Review Custom Code or Configuration:

      • If the error arises in a custom program or user exit, check the code to ensure the report name is passed correctly.
      • Debug the program to identify where the report name is missing.
    4. Consult Documentation or SAP Notes:

      • Sometimes, specific modules or transactions have particular requirements for report names.
      • Check SAP Notes or module-specific documentation for guidance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SE38 - ABAP Editor (to check or run reports)
      • SA38 - Execute ABAP Report
      • SM35 - Batch Input Monitoring (where report names are often specified)
    • Common Contexts:

      • Variant management
      • Batch input sessions
      • Custom transaction creation
      • User exits or BAdIs requiring report execution
    • SAP Notes:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for message WZ093 or related keywords for module-specific notes.

    Summary:

    The error WZ093 - Specify a report means SAP expects a report program name but none was provided. To fix it, identify where the report name is missing and enter the correct report program. Verify the report exists and is correctly referenced in your process or configuration.


    If you provide the exact transaction or context where this error occurs, I can help with more specific guidance.
