Function Module Error: GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED

[Former Member]

Hello everyone,

I have a scenario where I copy a function module (IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS to ZIDOC_INPUT_ORDERS) and make changes to the code to enhance the program. I get an error 'GETWA_NOT_ASSIGNED' 'Field symbol has not yet been assigned' on the shortdump.

This is strange since even if I don't make any major changes (eg. write a *note in the zprogram), whenever I run it, it gives me the above error. Has anyone encountered this before? If so, would anyone be able to help me out?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I guess you have copied the function module in some other function group...where as in case of the standard one some where else(in another FM) the field symbol has been assigned...

Because of this u got the error...u copy entire group and check....That means copy the main program....

Thanks You.

Hello Ginger,

Thanks for your reply! I copied the whole IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS program from SE37. It showed the function group VEDA then. The new program - ZIDOC_INPUT_ORDERS also belongs to the function group VEDA.

Is this correct?

Warm regards,

Glenn

PS. I did my changes in DEV Client 100 (Where we do our configurations), I'm testing in DEV Client 300. The changes made in Client 100 reflect in Client 300, but would there be any activations I need to perform in Client 300 as well?
