• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/CUST_UI036 - Selected object is not extensible ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/CUST_UI036 Selected object is not extensible typically occurs in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) when you are trying to extend a business object that is not designed to be extensible.
