The SAP error message BC_BOR514 indicates that there was an attempt to change a table entry in the SCUSTOM table, but the operation could not be completed. This error typically arises due to various reasons, including authorization issues, data inconsistencies, or system settings.
Causes:
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to modify entries in the SCUSTOM table.
- Data Locking: The entry might be locked by another user or process, preventing changes.
- Table Configuration: The SCUSTOM table may be configured in a way that restricts changes (e.g., it could be set to read-only).
- Data Integrity Constraints: There may be constraints or dependencies that prevent the modification of the entry.
- Custom Code: If there is custom code (like user exits or BAdIs) that interacts with the SCUSTOM table, it might be causing the error.
Solutions:
- Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to modify the SCUSTOM table. This can be done by checking the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system.
- Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check if the entry is locked by another user. If it is, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or contact the user who has the lock.
- Review Table Settings: Check the configuration of the SCUSTOM table to ensure it is not set to read-only. This can be done in the Data Dictionary (SE11).
- Data Integrity: Investigate any data integrity constraints that might be preventing the change. This may involve checking related tables or dependencies.
- Debug Custom Code: If there is custom code involved, debug it to identify any issues that might be causing the error. Look for any logic that might prevent changes to the SCUSTOM table.
- Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or notes from SAP that might provide additional context or solutions for this specific error.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
