  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_EXT_POST005 - Use case &1 is not supported ?

    The SAP error message:

    WZRE_EXT_POST005 Use case &1 is not supported

    typically occurs in the context of SAP Treasury and Risk Management, specifically within the area of External Postings (e.g., when posting external transactions or interfacing with external systems).


    Cause

    • The error indicates that the particular use case (denoted by &1, which is a placeholder for the actual use case code) is not supported by the system or the configuration.
    • This usually happens when the system encounters a transaction or process that tries to execute an external posting scenario that has not been implemented or enabled in the system.
    • It can also occur if a custom or standard process calls an external posting function module or BAdI implementation that does not handle the given use case.
    • In some cases, this error arises because the use case is missing in the configuration tables or the relevant business transaction is not mapped correctly.

    Solution

    1. Identify the Use Case:

      • Check the exact use case code passed in the error message (replace &1 with the actual value).
      • Understand which business process or transaction is triggering this use case.
    2. Check Configuration:

      • For example, check settings under:
        • Financial Supply Chain Management (FSCM)
        • Treasury and Risk Management ? Transactions ? External Postings
      • Ensure that the use case is defined and supported in the customizing tables.
    3. Review Implementation:

      • If a custom enhancement or BAdI is used for external postings, check the implementation to ensure it supports the use case.
      • Common BAdIs related to external postings include:
        • TR_EXTERNAL_POSTING
        • TR_EXTERNAL_POSTING_EXT
      • Make sure the code handles the use case &1.
