• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CONF_CDS053 - [BO sync] DDIC structure &1 has been changed (template &2) ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF_CDS053 indicates that there has been a change in the Data Dictionary (DDIC) structure related to a Business Object (BO) synchronization process. This typically occurs when the underlying data model of a Business Object has been modified, which can lead to inconsistencies or issues when trying to synchronize the Business Object with its corresponding data model.
  Cause:
  
  Change in DDIC Structure: The error is triggered when the structure of a Data Dictionary object (like a table or view) that is used in the Business Object has been altered. This could include changes such as adding or removing fields, changing data types, or modifying relationships.
  Template Changes: The template associated with the Business Object may have been updated, leading to a mismatch between the expected structure and the actual structure.
  Inconsistent Metadata: If the metadata of the Business Object is not in sync with the underlying database structure, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Changes: Review the recent changes made to the DDIC structures that are related to the Business Object. This can include checking for any modifications in tables, views, or data elements.
  Re-Synchronize the Business Object: You may need to re-synchronize the Business Object with the updated DDIC structure. This can typically be done using transaction codes like /BOBF/CONF or through the relevant configuration tools in the SAP system.
  Adjust the Template: If the template has changed, ensure that the Business Object is updated to reflect these changes. This may involve modifying the Business Object configuration or regenerating the necessary artifacts.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that there are no other dependent objects that might be causing the issue. Sometimes, changes in one area can have cascading effects on others.
  Transport Requests: If the changes were made in a development environment, ensure that the transport requests are correctly moved to the quality or production environment.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like /BOBF/CONF for Business Object Framework configuration and /BOBF/BO for Business Object management.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific Business Object or DDIC structure you are working with.
  Documentation: Review the SAP documentation for Business Object Framework and Data Dictionary to understand the implications of changes in the data model.
  Testing: After making changes, conduct thorough testing to ensure that the Business Object functions correctly with the updated structure.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or ABAP team for further investigation and resolution.
