Update termination Error : Maintain Output device in User master record

Hi All,
For transaction IW32 when print is given we have getting Update termination error : Maintain Output device in User master record.
I have set the user_settings = Space, for output_Options passed the output device . Even for control_paramters I have passed the device while calling the Smartform . However there is no use. Still I am getting the update termination error.
Please let me know how to solve this issue. Any OSS Note is there for this.
Thanks in Advance!
Regards,
Preethi G

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. There is no problem in the print program .
In the user master record , if the output device is not given and in the print program if we pass the output device. the error is coming.Is there any way to solve the issue at the print program level with out maintaining the user master.Please let me know.
Many Thanks!
Regards,
Preethi G

  • Maintain output device in user master data

    when we try to print the Purchase order smartform we are getting the
    following update terminated error message.
    " Please maintain output device in user master data".
    1. If we maintain output device in my user profile as any printer name
    then we are not getting the update terminated error message.
    2. when we select the network printer it is always printing
    using the output device maintained in the user profile (example
    LOCL). it is not printing using network printer.
    when we select the network printer it should overwrite the user profile
    output device.
    Can we have the network printer selected irrespective of the printer
    maintained in the user profile?
    Please provide the solution

    Hi
    If you mention printer as LOCL the system will use network printer and the printer will be controled by Windows.
    If you specify printer name the printer will be controled by SAP.
    I hope now you can re-analyze your issue.

  • Date format in user master record cannot be interpreted

    When running an Infopackage from BW to an R/3 customer extractor, the R/3 job cancels with this error message, "Date format in user master record cannot be interpreted". I can restart the R/3 job program from the ABAP editor screen using the same variant that BW issued and the job runs without cancelling.
    NOTE: This process runs without any errors on our QAS system.
    Any idea what causes this error message and how I can fix it?

    Hi Alan,
    I have resolved this issue by myself. Same just like yours mine is also a custom Datasource.
    Solution for this is go to source system check your Background user id i.e like BWALEREMOTE or ALEREMOTE which ever id you have created for setting up RFC connection between R/3 & BW. Check your Date format which has been set for your background user. Use the second format mm/dd/yy. Then run your extraction you will not face any problem.
    If you still have any problem do let me know. If this solution helps you assign points.

  • Update termination error on coding in user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009

    HI All,
    I am working on approval of a work order in IW32 for which I am coding within a user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009 which gets triggerred at the time of saving the work order. This will update the AUFK table and send a mail to a recipient. But when I save the work order after approving it, it gives me an error saying "Update Termination error". I checked within the SM13 transaction and ST22 for dump analysis, it says "The ABAP/4 Open SQL array insert results in duplicate database records.". Can anyone tell me what could have gone wrong and how I can rectify this. Your help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance

    Hello
    This type of error will appear in three cases
    1.when there is a record in the database and trying to insert another with the same number
    2.If there is any inconsistencies in number ranges  (check this only if you have changed the number ranges very recently)
    3. If the output type and the output device is wrongly selected ( not the prescribed)
    Analyse yourself.

  • STATUS_UPDATE error to update USER STATUS - Update termination error

    Hi All,
    I am using status_update FM in sales order user exit MV45AFZZ in a perform routine for updating user status in line item for sales order. There are 4 custom statuses created for the sales order line item. 1,2 3, and 4 by configuration. My job is to select one of those based on user selection.
    Scenario: During change order process using  VA02, I have to change the existing status to a third status when user selects the second one. That is for example, in VA02, user selects status 4 from previous status 3, and save, I have to make the status 4 inactive and save the new status 2 instead of 3 though user selected 3. How do I achieve this.?  ????Any programming example is really appreciated. Thanks!!!
    I am right now using STATUS_READ and reading the existing status 4. Then making it inactive using status_update FM. And updating the new status 2 as active one and 3 as inactive again. Two inactive updates and one active update is throwing an update termination error while saving the sales order.
    Any help is really appreciated. 
    Thanks
    Ricky

    Hi ricky,
    For saving any changes you need to have a Z-table.
    In programs we can't store the user selection. In your case you can create a z-table and store the status there and delete the last status. The process would be faster as you will always have one record in the table.
    . One more advantage is you can even track the changes through the Z-table(User who is changing it.)
    Hope this solution will surely help you.
    Cheers

  • Update termination error at the time of order creation and chamge?

    Dear gurus,
    Facing an error at the time of creation of order.
    system is giving update termination error & when we are going in change mode of that order system is giving an error message " SD document XXXX is not in the database or has been achieved"
    please treat on priority
    regards,
    krai

    Hi,
    Goto ST22 T.Code and analyse the error.The error message why it is terminated will be displayed here.
    Or go to SBWP T.Code in the user where you got this error and check the inbox.
    It will display why the error is appearing.
    Show the same to the ABAPer and ask them to work on it.
    I think your server may be slow and it will take some time to update the order created by you.But I am not sure.Check the error message.
    Regards,
    Krishna.

    Hello ,
    "Update terminated " error has two reasongs.
    First is system update  was not active and hence terminated
    For this to check Goto the transaction code SM13  and  check whether the SYSTEM UPDATE is active or not.
    If it is active ,
    Then click on the Option TOBE updated in the status  and execute, then in the next screen you can find some list of documents that are not updated and causing error .
    Click on MODULES in the screen and find the erro which causing this error.
    Most this kind of error will happen if something in the Funcion Module or USER EXIT is missing.
    Please check and revert back if you need further details

  • Update Termination Error SSFCOMPOSER 173

    Hi All,
                I am facing a strange error in the production system.This error is not shown in development or test system.
    I have created a smartform which is called from a billing document.Whenever business assigns an output type to the billing document and saves it, it gets an "Update Termination Error".
    After checking the SAP inbox in production system, we have been able to retrieve the following message.
    Error info : SSFCOMPOSER 173: Table LEFT_DATA.
    From this, I understand that the dimensions of the table LEFT_DATA are larger than the window.But when checked, the dimensions of the table are smaller than the window, which ideally should not create any issues.
    This error is occuring only in Production system.So, its hard to analyse it.
    Any form of help will be highly appreciated.
    Regards.

    Yes, you are right.. your table has a problem.. but, I guess.. it is not related to the dimension... it is related to the number of columns.. I guess, some conditions inside your smartform might be wrong... which might triggered in production data..
    Example: You table has 3 columns and if your smartform is trying to print data in fourth column this error may occur.
    If I am wrong with the above assumption, then check the dimension of the table in all PAGES... EX: FIRST PAGE, SECOND PAGE etc, which are defined in your smartform.

  • Update termination error when posting goods issue

    Helllo
    I have a strange problem I can not figure out.  We have serial numbers like 12345/345.  When trying to post goods issue I get an update termination error  for invalid character. This only happens if the quantity is more than 1 each.  A quantity of 1 each works fine and receives no update termination when post goods issue...only recieve termination error if the post goods issue is for a qty of 2 each.
    I searched the SAP site found OSS note 40355...applied the note.  The note also mentions the chaging print paramters to include "/ _"  this is all done.
    I tried doing a ABAP Debug in SE38 (for the delivery note print program) and setting the breaking point, but when I go to run the transaction after the setting break point...when I hit post goods issue...SE38 does not return back to its screen.  So not sure if I am running the correct program there...or if this works for the update terminations?
    So strange I do not get this for a qty of one each only when it is greater than that.  I am stumped need help....
    Any advice wiould be GREATLY appreciated....

    Looks like there is an error in the delivery (or material movement ?) print program. Easiest would be to disable these outputs for test purposes. When no dump then the error is somewhere in the print program an could be analysed by triggering the print separately with ABAP RSNAST00.

  • Update termination error in IW32 because of requisition flag change

    Has anyone worked on IW32 to change the requisition flag of a work order from never to immediate. I tried doing this using BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN. It works fine for work order having operation control key same for every operation. But if this control key changes for any operation, then the update termination error occurs and hence the requisition flag change does not happen.
    Thanks in Advance

  • Updation terminated Error in BAPI Call

    Hi All,
    This is related to Warranty module where I need to first change status of a claim (which results into creation of new version for the same claim) and then need to update some fields in the newly created claim version.
    I am doing the above steps in following sequence:
    1) call of BAPI_WARRANTYCLAIM_SET_ACTION (to change the status of claim)
    2) call of BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
    3) call of BAPI_WARRANTYCLAIM_CHANGE (to change the fields)
    4) call of BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
    My problem that I am facing is:
    - When I execute the whole code, it results into "Updation termination error" followed by an email to my SAP inbox. However, if I execute the BAPIs - SET_ACTION and CHANGE seperately, it works perfectly fine. What I could figure out is that the error is because of LUW not getting completed ie lock still persists when BAPI_WARRANTYCLAIM_CHANGE is called.
    By using COMMIT WORK AND WAIT, its still not working.
    Can anyone provide some help or pointers for the same.
    Waiting for an early reply.
    Thanks,
    Debarya.

    hi all,
    thanks for prompt reply.
    <b>RAVI -</b> I have tried removing the BAPI COMMITS and explicitly used COMMIT AND WAIT. But it is not working.
