• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC039 - IV_NODE refers to subnode node, IV_SOURCE_KEY must be specified ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC039 indicates that there is an issue with the Business Object Framework (BOF) in SAP, specifically related to the handling of nodes and keys in a data model. The error message states that the input variable IV_NODE refers to a subnode, but the IV_SOURCE_KEY must be specified. This typically occurs when you are trying to access or manipulate a subnode without providing the necessary key that identifies the parent node.
  
  Cause:
  
  Missing Key Specification: The error is primarily caused by not providing the IV_SOURCE_KEY when trying to access a subnode. The framework requires a key to identify the parent node from which the subnode is derived.
  Incorrect Node Reference: The node reference (IV_NODE) may not be correctly defined or may not correspond to a valid parent node.
  Data Model Configuration: There may be issues in the configuration of the Business Object or the data model that leads to this inconsistency.
