Handling Messages 

This section contains information about important error messages that can occur, as well as recommendations about how you can react to the error situation.

Deleting an interface from an action (action editor)

Message: Warning – This interface can still be assigned to a connection.  Do you want to proceed? 

If you delete an interface that is still used in connections in a Business Scenario, this may lead to inconsistencies because the Business Scenario concerned is not updated automatically and the corresponding connections will continue to reference the deleted interface.

Therefore, SAP recommends that you first ensure that the interface in question is no longer used in any Business Scenarios before deleting it.

Deleting an action (action editor)

Message: Warning – This action can still be assigned to a Business Scenario. Do you want to proceed?

All the Business Scenarios in which the action to be deleted is used are not automatically updated following deletion. This may lead to inconsistencies. The action continues to be displayed in the Business Scenario graphic, but it no longer exists as an object.

SAP recommends that you ensure that this action is no longer referenced in any Business Scenarios before deleting it. 

Inserting a product in an application component (Business Scenario graphic)

Message: Imported software component versions are required to use a product. However, none exist for the selected product.

To be able to insert a product in a Business Scenario, at least one software component must exist for the product concerned in the System Landscape Directory. Furthermore, at least one of the corresponding software component versions must have been imported into the Integration Repository. If this is not the case, the product cannot be inserted in an application component and the system displays the message above.

You have two alternatives:

·        Use a product template

For more information, see the Modeling Application Components section of this documentation.

·        Import an appropriate software component version for the product concerned

Note that importing software component versions has extensive consequences. Only use this option if you are sure that you actually want to import software component versions.

Deleting the selected actions (Business Scenario graphic)

Message: All selected actions and assigned connections will be deleted. Do you want to proceed?

If you choose to continue, all selected actions and all assigned connections are deleted from the Business Scenario graphic. The connections are deleted completely. Interface and mapping settings for the connections concerned will be deleted and cannot be recovered.

Double-click on action in the Business Scenario graphic (Business Scenario graphic)

Message: Object not found (……)

Possible reasons for the message occurring:

·        The software component that belongs to the action is not installed in your system. Therefore, the action does not exist in your system as an independent object of the Integration Builder. This action is displayed in the Business Scenario graphic but you cannot navigate to the actual object. It is also not possible to change or display the action.

·        The software component that belongs to the action is installed on your system but not in the software component version that was originally used to create the action. Again, the action is displayed in the graphic but you cannot display or change it.

This means that you can display the entire Business Scenario, even if some of the products involved are not installed on your system. However, you can only navigate to the objects concerned (actions, interfaces) once you have installed the software component versions required.
