• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GEN_FRAME305 - Package &1 may not contain local objects ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GEN_FRAME305 indicates that a package is being used that contains local objects, which is not allowed in certain contexts, particularly when dealing with Business Object Framework (BOBF) or when generating code in a package that is intended to be transportable.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to create or modify an object in a package that is defined as a local package (usually starting with $TMP or similar). Local packages are not transportable and are meant for development purposes only. The BOBF framework requires that objects be created in a transportable package to ensure that they can be moved between different systems (e.g., from development to quality assurance to production).
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Change the Package: Move the object you are trying to create or modify to a transportable package. You can do this by:
  
  Creating a new package in the SAP system that is transportable (not starting with $TMP).
  Assigning the object to this new package.
  
  
  
  Check Package Attributes: Ensure that the package you are using is not marked as a local package. You can check this in the package attributes in the SAP GUI.
  
  
  Transport Request: If you are working in a development environment, ensure that you are working within a transport request that is properly configured.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might provide additional context or updates regarding this error.
  BOBF Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation on the Business Object Framework for best practices on package management and object creation.
  Development Guidelines: Follow SAP's development guidelines to ensure that you are using the correct packages and practices when developing objects in the system.
