Variant not existing

Please explain me the reason of this message:
"variant xxx of program yyy is not the current version"
Why is this happening?

Hi,
This has happened because there are some changes to the program (on which variant was created) after the variant creation.
You need to re-create the varaint after any changes to the base program.
Let me know if you need more info.
Pl reward if you find this info useful.
Thanks,
Ramesh

Background job is cancelled dut o variant not exist

Dear friends,
In my program I have created a variant using FM 'RS_VARIANT_CREATE', and after the creation of variant , i'm submitting the job immediately, but the job get canceled with error message, specified variant is not defined.
when i checked the VARID table the variant gets updated, the time differnce is approximately 8 sec for both varaint creation and job start timre. Can any one face this type of issue, could any one help on this.
Thanks for your time.
Best regards
Kumar.

Hi Kumar,
Right after you create your variant use the statement COMMIT WORK AND WAIT.
If it doesn't work you can do something like this
While f_found = space.
select * from varid
where report = 'XYZ'
and variant = 'MYVAR'.
if sy-subrc = 0.
f_found = 'X'.
else.
wait up to 1 seconds.
endif.
endwhile.
I still think try COMMIT WORK AND WAIT after calling RS_VARIANT_CREATE.
Kind regards,
Marius

SPM related masterdata loads: Variants doesnot exist

Hi,
We were trying to load the data through process chains(0ASA_XA_P27, 0ASA_XA_P14, 0ASA_XA_P13... etc) for GEOGRAPHY, CATEGORY, SUPPLIER etc. And the common failure we are getting is the corresponding program variants not exist.
Program Name Program Variant
RSXSA_HIERARCHY_UPLOAD SAP_XSA_GEOS, SAP_XSA_SLCAT, SAP_XSA_SGSUP
These program variants are not available and hence the chain fails.
Please let me know the possible solution.
Thank you.

RSPC Variant does not exist - Could not find or load print parameters

We are on BI 7.0 (support pack SAPKW70017). We recently freshed test system from production.   After the refresh, we have problems opening all the process chains.
1. When I go to RSPC to open a process chain, I get many messages like this:
Variant &0000000067180 does not exist (there are different variant numbers)
Message no. DB612
Diagnosis
You selected variant &0000000067180 for program RSPROCESS.
This variant does not exist.
2. When I go to SM21 to check the system log, it displays many entries like below:
EJ F Could not find or load print parameters for step 1, job BI_PROCESS_TRIGGER/09134500
Documentation for system log message EJ F :
An error occurred during loading of the print parameters for a
background job step.
The print parameter record may have been deleted even though there was
a still a step that needed that data. This is an error as the
reorganization of the print parameters should prevent this from
happening.
To fix the problem, edit the step and save it, copy the job, or
schedule a new job. The print parameters will be regenerated in all
these cases.
3. I applied the OSS note 1169659 - Correction: Process variants not entered by BDLS.   The Basis rerun BDLS. But it did not fix the problem.
Would appreciate if someone could provide any help.
Thank you.

Hi Rebecca.
1) Please verify if exist process types called 'unknown job'. If exist: delete process types called 'unknown job' in your process chain. To do that please remove the chain from scheduling (menu bar > process chain > remove from schedule), afterwards switch the detail view on (menu bar > view) > right mouse click on the process type "unknown job" > displaying scheduled jobs > delete that job. After deletion of the 'unknown jobs' activate and schedule your process chain again.
2) After the removal of the 'unknown jobs' please check if the error messages with the missing variants pop up when calling your process chain disappears. If not, please implement and execute the attached report Z_FIND_JOBS_WITHOUT_VARIANT which deletes the jobs without variants.
I have already attached report as Report Z_FIND_JOBS_WITHOUT_VARIANT, you can download and create the report accordingly.

ALE error - variant LOGSYS does not exist?

In trying to setup ALE within SAP (ECC 5.0) to send a material master IDOC from the ERP to XI. I followed the ALE Quick Start guide and several other resources on the net including IDOC Cookbook and others. When I try to select transaction BD10 (Send Material Master), it returns the following error:
Variant LOGSYS does not exist
The long text is:
Variant LOGSYS does not exist
Message no. DB612
Diagnosis
You selected variant LOGSYS for program RBDSEMAT.
This variant does not exist.
Procedure
Correct the entry.
In trying to narrow down the problem, I created a minimal scenario of just sending the MATMAS IDOC from one client to another on the same system and I get the same error.
My first thought was the logical systems for the two
clients were not setup correctly, but they seem okay. I'm using the 'PRODUCTION' logical system that came with the IDES version we installed (client 811) and trying to send to a new client I setup as logical system VM1CLNT300 (client 300) on the same system.
RFC Destinations test okay, partner profiles, ports, and the distribution model seem okay.
Googling for that error message above produced nothing that I could get an answer from. Any ideas?
Thanks,
-tim

Yes, both logical systems are there. Additionally, each
client has been set to the appropriate logical system:
client 811 -> PRODUCTION logical system
client 300 -> VM1CLNT300 logical system

DP Mass Processing error Variant &0000000000322 does not exist

Hi,
When I double click on the process chain which is created already in transaction RSPC, the system displays message Variant &0000000000322 does not exist.
Please help to resolve this issue.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Hi,
Variants starting with & are temporary variants and are not transported from one system to another. So if you have transported your process chain from one system to another, the chances are the temporary variants have not been transported.
So pls change your process chain to use a more permanent variant. You can create permanent variants for mass processing jobs as follows.
Go to SE38, type program name as /sapapo/ts_batch_run. Click on variants and create variants with the relevant info.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Process Variant does not exist in version A:

Good day
I have changed an existing process chain by removing an InfoPackage that had no link to any other process but the 'start'. When I 'test' the chain the message: "Process Variant AND .... does not exist in version A" is displayed. I have not even touched the 'AND' process.
As a result the chain does not want to activate.
What am I missing here?
Thanks
Cornelius Faurie

Thanks for your quick response. Sorry, I did not give you all the information. The 'AND' process was still connected between two Ioad processes (One IP loads Mdata from a flat file, then the AND process, then the second IP load from CRM (0BPARTNER)) BUT there were two AND's with the same name. I think I removed the process of the one AND at one stage, but the second remained (Copy of the same AND).
I have removed the AND process in totality and created a new one and it is activating now.
Sorry, my stupidity.
Thanks anyway
