Hi mahmoud_farag,

I have never used Shift Notes but answering your question in the simplest possible way I would say that most probably value LOSS does not exist in table QPCD (QPCD-CODE).

You can debug method CHECK_INPUT_PARAMETER of class CL_COCF_SN_API to check what values are used in the WHERE clause.

First , thanks for your answer

but I create the shift note with the same values in SHN1 ,and it created normal if i entered a wrong value in category in FM i get error ' not exit value ' i want to create a shift note using FM ( COCF_SN_CREATE_PP ). but i got an error with the category .
can you try to create one in SE37 with COCF_SN_CREATE_PP(just needed the work center , date and category ) maybe that error in my system only .

thanks again .

hi all ,
I solved this problem finally , it was in the in the IMG activity .

You have checked the following settings in Customizing for the Shift Note in the IMG activity Catalogs and Catalog Profiles for Notification Type :

For the desired notification type , choose a catalog profile, such as 000000001 general catalog profile .
In the Coding field, choose a catalog type , such as 9 defect types .
