SAP S/4HANA Error 5340: Failed Segment Analysis
Description
This error indicates a problem during the analysis of a specific data segment within SAP S/4HANA. It typically arises when a business process attempts to process or evaluate a segment, but an underlying issue prevents the analysis from completing successfully, impacting data processing or reporting.
Error Message
ERR_TEXT_LA_SCENARIO_6
Known Causes
4 known causesData Inconsistency
The segment being analyzed contains corrupted, incomplete, or incorrectly formatted data, preventing successful processing by the system.
Configuration Mismatch
The system configuration for segment analysis does not align with the expected data structure or business logic, leading to processing errors.
Resource Limitations
Insufficient system resources, such as memory or processing power, are available to complete the complex analysis of the segment.
Missing Authorizations
The user or background process attempting the analysis lacks the necessary permissions to access or process certain data within the segment.
Solutions
3 solutions available1. Verify and Recreate Missing or Corrupted Application Log Entries medium
Ensures the integrity of application log data by checking for missing entries and recreating them if necessary.
1
Identify the specific application or process that triggers Error 5340. This often involves reviewing transaction logs, dump files (ST22), and the application logs themselves (SLG1).
2
Access the Application Log transaction (SLG1) in SAP S/4HANA. Navigate to the relevant log object and sub-object associated with the error.
Transaction Code: SLG13
Analyze the existing log entries for any gaps, inconsistencies, or corrupted entries. Pay close attention to the sequence and completeness of log messages.
4
If missing or corrupted log segments are identified, attempt to recreate them by re-executing the triggering application process. This might involve re-processing a specific transaction or batch job.
5
If re-execution does not resolve the issue or is not feasible, consider using SAP Notes or consulting SAP Support for tools or procedures to repair or rebuild application log data. This might involve advanced database operations or specific SAP programs.
2. Check and Correct Data Consistency in Application Log Tables advanced
Addresses potential data corruption within the underlying database tables that store application log information.
1
Identify the SAP S/4HANA database system (e.g., HANA). Access the database directly using appropriate SQL client tools.
2
Locate the primary tables responsible for storing application log data. These typically include `BALHDR` (Header) and `BALDAT` (Data) in older SAP versions, but S/4HANA might have specific table structures or views. Consult SAP documentation for the exact table names in your S/4HANA version.
Example SQL (for general understanding, actual table names may vary):
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM BALHDR;
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM BALDAT;3
Perform consistency checks on these tables. This can involve verifying foreign key relationships, ensuring sequential integrity of log IDs, and checking for orphaned records.
Example SQL for checking potential orphaned records (adjust table names as per S/4HANA):
SELECT bh.* FROM BALHDR bh LEFT JOIN BALDAT bd ON bh.log_handle = bd.log_handle WHERE bd.log_handle IS NULL;
SELECT bd.* FROM BALDAT bd LEFT JOIN BALHDR bh ON bd.log_handle = bh.log_handle WHERE bh.log_handle IS NULL;4
If inconsistencies are found, carefully plan and execute corrective actions. This might involve deleting inconsistent records, re-inserting missing ones, or using database-specific repair tools. **Caution: Back up your database before performing any direct data manipulation.**
5
After making corrections, restart the relevant SAP application services or the entire S/4HANA system to ensure changes are applied.
3. Review and Update SAP Notes Related to Application Logging easy
Ensures the system has the latest patches and fixes for application logging functionality.
1
Access the SAP Support Portal (launchpad.support.sap.com).
2
Search for relevant SAP Notes using keywords such as 'Error 5340', 'ERR_TEXT_LA_SCENARIO_6', 'Application Log', and your specific S/4HANA version.
3
Carefully review the identified SAP Notes for any known issues related to the 'Failed Segment Analysis' error and the specific scenario.
4
If a relevant SAP Note is found, follow the instructions to implement the correction. This might involve applying a Support Package, a specific correction, or performing manual configuration changes.
5
After implementing the SAP Note, test the application process that was previously failing to confirm the resolution.
