    SAP Error Message: WZ602 - Error in text system


    1. Cause

    The error message WZ602 typically occurs when there is a problem with the SAP text management system. This system is responsible for handling long texts associated with various SAP objects (e.g., materials, documents, orders).

    Common causes include:

    • Text object or text ID not found or incorrectly specified: The system cannot find the text object or text ID you are trying to access or modify.
    • Inconsistency or corruption in the text management tables: The underlying tables that store long texts (e.g., STXH, STXL) might have inconsistencies.
    • Authorization issues: The user might not have the required authorization to read or write texts.
    • Transport or client copy issues: Sometimes, during client copies or transports, text data might not be properly moved or linked.
    • Incorrect language or text format: The text might be requested in a language or format that does not exist.
    • System or program error: A bug or issue in the program or function module handling the text.

    2. Solution

    To resolve the WZ602 error, consider the following steps:

    • Check the Text Object and Text ID:

      • Verify that the text object and text ID you are using are correct and exist in the system.
      • Use transaction SE75 to check text objects and text IDs.
    • Check Text Existence:

      • Use transaction SE38 or SE80 to run programs or function modules that read the text.
      • Check if the text exists in tables STXH (header) and STXL (lines).
    • Check Authorizations:

      • Ensure the user has the necessary authorizations for text maintenance (e.g., authorization object S_TEXT).
    • Check Language Settings:

      • Verify that the language key used for the text is valid and the text exists in that language.
    • Run Consistency Checks:

      • Use standard SAP reports or tools to check for inconsistencies in text tables.
      • For example, report RSTXTCHECK can be used to check long text consistency.
    • Debugging:

      • If the error occurs during a custom program or standard SAP transaction, debug the program to identify where the error is raised.
      • Check the function modules like READ_TEXT, SAVE_TEXT, etc.
    • Transport and Client Copy:

      • If the error appeared after a transport or client copy, verify that the texts were properly transported.
      • Re-import or re-transport the texts if necessary.
    • SAP Notes and Support:

      • Search for relevant SAP Notes on the SAP Support Portal for known bugs or patches related to WZ602.
