Debugging Made Easy: How the ABAP Short Dump Analyzer Simplifies SAP Error Resolution

Every SAP specialist has experienced it: you’re in the middle of a task, and the system abruptly crashes due to an ABAP short dump. Instead of continuing with your work, you’re now stuck sifting through cryptic error logs in an attempt to figure out what went wrong as the dreaded “Short dump has been written to file” message appears.

Debugging short dumps can feel like detective work—going through ST22 logs, comparing SAP Notes, and sometimes even resorting to trial-and-error fixes. It’s frustrating, time-consuming, and in a production environment, costly. Wouldn’t it be fantastic if an AI-powered tool could instantly analyze short dumps, clearly explain the underlying problem, and recommend workable solutions?

Introducing ERPlingo’s ABAP Short Dump Analyzer, your intelligent assistant for quickly and accurately resolving SAP runtime errors.

Real-World Use Case: Fixing Short Dumps in Minutes

Imagine an SAP user encounters the dreaded MESSAGE_TYPE_X error while processing a sales order. Traditionally, resolving this short dump would involve:
