  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IDOC009 - Specify a class or a check group ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WZRE_IDOC009: Specify a class or a check group:


    Error Message

    WZRE_IDOC009: Specify a class or a check group


    Cause

    This error occurs during the processing of IDocs (Intermediate Documents) in SAP, specifically when the system expects either a class or a check group to be specified for validation or processing, but neither has been provided.

    • In the context of IDoc processing, certain validations or enhancements require a class (ABAP class) or a check group (a grouping of validation rules) to be assigned.
    • If the configuration or the user input does not specify either, the system cannot proceed with the required validation or processing logic, hence the error.

    When does it occur?

    • During IDoc inbound or outbound processing.
    • When using custom or standard validation routines that require a class or check group.
    • When setting up or executing IDoc processing rules or enhancements (e.g., in WE19, WE20, or custom programs).
    • Possibly during ALE/EDI processing where validation classes or check groups are mandatory.

    Solution

    1. Specify a Class or Check Group:

      • Check the configuration or the program where the IDoc processing is taking place.
      • Ensure that either a valid class or a check group is assigned.
      • This can be done in the relevant customizing transaction or in the user input screen where the IDoc processing is triggered.
    2. Check IDoc Processing Configuration:

      • Go to transaction WE20 (Partner Profiles) or WE42 (Process Codes) and verify if the processing routines require a class or check group.
      • In case of custom validation, ensure the class implementing the validation interface is assigned.
    3. Review Custom Enhancements:

      • If custom code or user exits are involved, verify that the class or check group is correctly passed or set.
      • Debug the processing to see where the class/check group is expected but missing.
    4. Consult Documentation or SAP Notes:

      • Sometimes, specific SAP Notes or documentation related to the IDoc type or validation framework provide guidance on required classes or check groups.

    Additional Information

    • Check Group: A logical grouping of validation checks that can be assigned to IDoc processing to ensure data integrity.
    • Class: An ABAP class implementing specific interfaces for validation or processing logic.
    • This error is a safeguard to prevent incomplete or incorrect IDoc processing.
    • Proper assignment ensures that the IDoc data is validated or processed according to business rules.

    Summary

    Aspect Description
    Error WZRE_IDOC009: Specify a class or a check group
    Cause Neither a class nor a check group specified for IDoc processing/validation
    Solution Assign a valid class or check group in configuration or input
    Where to check Partner Profiles (WE20), Process Codes (WE42), Custom code, Validation setup
