  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CONF207 - Field &1 of value set is not part of structure of &2 ?

    The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF207 Field &1 of value set is not part of structure of &2 typically occurs in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) when there is a mismatch between the fields defined in a value set and the fields available in the corresponding structure of a business object.

    Cause:

    1. Field Mismatch: The field specified in the error message (&1) is not defined in the structure of the business object (&2). This can happen if:

      • The field was removed or renamed in the business object structure.
      • The value set is incorrectly configured to include fields that do not exist in the business object.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the BOPF or the value set, leading to inconsistencies.

    3. Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there might be inconsistencies in the objects.

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Definitions:

      • Verify that the field (&1) is indeed part of the structure of the business object (&2). You can do this by checking the data model of the business object in the BOPF configuration.
    2. Update Value Set:

      • If the field is no longer part of the structure, you need to update the value set to remove the reference to the non-existent field.
      • If the field should be part of the structure, ensure that it is correctly defined in the business object.
    3. Rebuild or Adjust BOPF Configuration:

      • If there are configuration issues, you may need to adjust the BOPF configuration or rebuild the relevant components.
    4. Check Transport Requests:

      • If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly and that there are no missing dependencies.
    5. Debugging:

      • If the issue persists, consider debugging the BOPF logic to trace where the error is being triggered and gather more context about the data being processed.

    Related Information:

    • BOPF Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation on BOPF to understand how value sets and business object structures are defined and managed.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address known issues or provide patches related to this error.
    • Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or support channels for additional insights or similar experiences from other users.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement the necessary corrections.
