HCM P&F: Shortdump for approvers - OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED_NO -CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We have implemented HCM processes and forms module recently. We are using FPM forms not Adobe forms.

There is a short dump which is appearing randomly and baffling us, please advise.

Some times user are getting following short dump and putting the work item to reserved. When they try to click and open the same form then it is throwing error says it is already reserved, you can't process it. And at the same time another dump created in the backend.

Does anybody help why this is happening and how to overcome it?

HI Sahir,

Thanks for your reply. The processor roles was correctly setup as 'HRASRB'.

We found the cause of issue, the problem is with Structural Authorizations..!! The processor didn't have authorization to pernr. And he never reported that he is not seeing the data on the form... . And he is just blindly trying to "Approve" it, based on title of the form.

I think this might be a bug in SAP Code. Without showing error for authorization, the code proceeds to execute FPM event for approval. Finally we sorted out by correcting Structural Authorizations (Buffering problem).

Thanks agian..!!

Hello Hareesh K,

1. Ensure all SAP notes corresponding to search term CL_HRASR00_PROCESS_UI_EVENTS @ service.sap.com/support

2. For the work item that errors out check out if processor role is correctly set and then debug towards finding the reason for that.

Hope this helps.

With regards,

Sahir
