Fault Messages

Definition

A fault message is a message that describes an application-specific error situation.

Use

The proxy generation functions generate exception classes for fault messages. If an application triggers an exception using such an exception class, the ABAP proxy runtime automatically converts it to a fault message. Using the fault message, the application records an application error (for example, Requested Customer Profile Unknown).

The following threads can be useful to you :

hi..Radhika,

fault messages are used to propagate the error msg to the calling application. this is used when there is a failure on sender system needs to know where the error was occured.

Hi radhika

Fault messages are used to propogate / send back the error maessage to the calling application. This is used when there is a failue and the sending system needs to know what the error was. This is more of catching Application Errors.

Also please go through the link below to get the details for fault messages...

fault message is a message that describes an application-specific error situation

we have standardised fault message in XI.

Fault message types are designed for application-specific errors that occur on the inbound side and that are reported back to the sender or persisted in monitoring.

In the synchronous case, when an application-specific error occurs on the inbound side, instead of sending a response message back to the sender, the application can send a fault message to handle the error.

The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement

Application-specific means that the application on the inbound side triggers the error itself because, for example, the request message did not contain sufficient information

You can use Fault messages when you want to handle errors at the Inbound side ie at the destination side.
