Assertion Failed Error

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Some of the users using my appliation is getting the below error.

Short text

The ASSERT condition was violated.

What happened?

In the running application program, the ASSERT statement recognized a

situation that should not have occurred.

The runtime error was triggered for one of these reasons:

- For the checkpoint group specified with the ASSERT statement, the

activation mode is set to "abort".

- Via a system variant, the activation mode is globally set to "abort"

for checkpoint groups in this system.

- The activation mode is set to "abort" on program level.

- The ASSERT statement is not assigned to any checkpoint group.

What can you do?

Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.

To process the problem further, contact you SAP system

administrator.

Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look

at and manage termination messages, and you can also

keep them for a long time.

The application is working fine for many other users. Only few are facing this issue. They are getting this dump when they are trying to submit the data. What could be the issue?

I checked with the Authorization roles assigned for them. Everything is fine. Is there any special authorization needed to update the table?

"The ASSERT condition was violated" is a fairly meaningless error my itself. It basically says something bad happened but doesn't provide any reason why. I would suggest that you check ST22 and look for a corresponding short dump. That will provide more details about the actual cause of the error. At least it should lead you to the offending source code that triggered the assertion and from there you should be able to see the condition check that leads to it. Without more details there isn't much advice that can be provided here. There are several common causes of assertion errors in WDA - like incorrect cardinality, incorrect dynamic binding, etc.
