• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AMDP_CMP_CHECKS006 - The AMDP method &1 was changed to an ABAP-only method ?

  The SAP error message AMDP_CMP_CHECKS006 indicates that an ABAP Managed Database Procedure (AMDP) method has been changed to an ABAP-only method. This typically occurs when the method's implementation no longer meets the requirements for being an AMDP, which is designed to execute database procedures directly in the database layer.
  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors, including:
  
  Changes in Method Signature: If the method signature has been altered in a way that is incompatible with AMDP, such as changing the parameters or return types.
  Use of Unsupported ABAP Constructs: If the method uses ABAP constructs that are not supported in the context of AMDP, such as certain types of exception handling or specific ABAP statements that cannot be translated to SQL.
  Database Compatibility: If the underlying database does not support the operations being performed in the method, it may be flagged as an ABAP-only method.
  Changes in the Database Procedure: If the database procedure that the AMDP is supposed to call has been modified or is no longer available.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  Review the Method Implementation: Check the implementation of the AMDP method for any changes that may have been made. Ensure that it adheres to the requirements for AMDP methods.
  Check Method Signature: Ensure that the method signature is correct and compatible with AMDP. If changes were made, revert them or adjust the method to comply with AMDP requirements.
  Use Supported Constructs: Make sure that the ABAP code within the method only uses constructs that are supported in AMDP. Avoid using unsupported statements or constructs.
  Database Compatibility: Verify that the database procedures being called are still valid and compatible with the AMDP method.
  Recreate the AMDP: If necessary, you can recreate the AMDP method from scratch, ensuring that you follow the guidelines for AMDP methods.
  
  Related Information:
  
  AMDP Overview: AMDP allows you to define methods in ABAP that can call database procedures directly, leveraging the capabilities of the database for performance.
  Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for AMDP to understand the requirements and limitations of AMDP methods.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or bugs related to AMDP methods.
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to trace the execution of the method and identify where the incompatibility arises.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to restore the functionality of the AMDP method.
