Exception: CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I'm trying to resolve a problem with a dump, I see that I need to find a sap-note to resolve that but I dont find it in SAP Support Portal.

In st22 I have this:

OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED

CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL

Access via 'NULL' object reference not possible.

Error in the ABAP Application Program

The current ABAP program "/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CP" had to be

terminated because it has

come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.

An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.

The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not

  caught in

procedure "/SAPSRM/IF_PDO_DO_PARTNER~GET_PARTNER_FCT_TYPES" "(METHOD)", nor was

  it propagated by a RAISING clause.

Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

exception would occur, the current program is terminated.

The reason for the exception is:

You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')

access a component (variable: "ME->MO_PDO_PARTNER").

An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)

before it can be used to access components.

Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the

CLEAR statement.

Notes to resolve:

"OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED" "CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL"

"/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CP" or "/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CM03C"

"/SAPSRM/IF_PDO_DO_PARTNER~GET_PARTNER_FCT_TYPES"

The procedure is in program "/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CP "; its source

  code begins in line

1 of the (Include program "/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CM03C ".

Code:

>>>>>CALL METHOD mo_pdo_partner->/sapsrm/if_pdo_do_partner~get_partner_fct_types

     EXPORTING

       iv_process_type = lv_process_type

       iv_itemlevel    = iv_itemlevel

     IMPORTING

       et_partner_func = et_partner_func.

Thx and regards.

Hi Cesar,

What are you doing that is causing the dump? Could you give steps to reproduce, and also your SRM version and support pack level?

Kind regards,

Hi Cesar/Conor,

I am also facing same issue, after creating the SC when i click on refresh button dumps are occurring in ST22. Could you please let me know the resolution for this issue.

Thanks,

Hi Kishore/Ceasar,

Even I had faced the similar issue some time back. Kindly get the below analysis to find the root cause of the same:

The dump is occurred when you trying to refresh a shopping cart which is not successfully created yet or we can say not registered in BBP_PD.

Runtime Error:                                                               

OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED

Exception:

CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL

Terminated Program:

/SAPSRM/CL_PDO_BO_SC==========CP.

Please note just after click on order (before click on refresh) if you search the shopping cart in BBP_PD you cannot found anything.

SHC might not get created successfully or saved to database due to to some other exception occurred during database save operation.

In my case, other exception is occurred in the process controlled workflow due to which a below dump is registered in the ST22.

Runtime Error:

DBSQL_DUPLICATE_KEY_ERROR

Exception:

CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB

Terminated Program:

/SAPSRM/SAPLWF_CORE_ADHOC

Below is the failed database operation:

INSERT /sapsrm/d_wf_015 FROM TABLE it_level_to_item_map[].

So in ST22 you will get 2 dumps (one which is the root cause exception(For ex. DBSQL_DUPLICATE_KEY_ERROR) and the other one (OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED) which is occurred when you click on refresh).

Just for your information in my case the other exception (DBSQL_DUPLICATE_KEY_ERROR) occurred because same approver is determined during 2 consecutive levels in n level step due to inconsistent set up in custom table.

Let me know if this helpful to resolve your issue or in case you need further information regarding to this.
