  The SAP error message /BOBF/TEST_UI004 indicates that the Business Object (BO) specified in the message is either disabled for watchpoints or does not exist in the system. This error typically arises when you are trying to set a watchpoint for a Business Object in the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) and the system cannot find the specified object or it is not configured to allow watchpoints.
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent Business Object: The Business Object you are trying to reference does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo in the name or the object not being activated.

  Solutions:

  Check BOPF Configuration: Review the configuration of the Business Object in the BOPF. Ensure that watchpoints are enabled for the object. This can typically be done in the BOPF configuration transaction (e.g., using transaction code /BOBF/CONF).
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the Business Object and set watchpoints. You may need to consult with your security team to verify this.
  Debugging Alternatives: If watchpoints are not available, consider using other debugging techniques, such as breakpoints in the ABAP code or logging mechanisms to trace the execution flow.
