SAP S/4HANA Error 500: Missing SQL Predicates
Description
This error indicates that a SQL query executed within SAP S/4HANA is missing required predicates (conditions) in its WHERE clause. It typically occurs when custom reports, extensions, or database operations attempt to retrieve data without properly specifying filtering criteria, which is mandatory for performance and data governance.
Error Message
ERR_SQL_REQUIRE_PREDICATE
Known Causes
3 known causesCustom Code Development Flaw
An ABAP developer or consultant has implemented custom SQL or CDS views that omit necessary predicates in the WHERE clause, despite them being required by the system.
Misconfigured Data Extraction
An external system or integration interface is attempting to extract data from SAP S/4HANA using a malformed query that lacks required filtering conditions.
Dynamic Query Construction Issue
The application constructs SQL queries dynamically, and an input or logic error resulted in a WHERE clause without any predicates, leading to an invalid query.
