• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC076 - IV_SCOPE can only be local or substructure, not " &1 " ?

  The SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC076 IV_SCOPE can only be local or substructure, not "&1" typically occurs in the context of Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) when you are trying to define a scope for a BOPF action or method, and the specified scope is not valid.
  Cause:
  The error indicates that the IV_SCOPE parameter you are trying to use is not of the expected type. In BOPF, the scope can only be defined as either:
  
  Local: This means the scope is limited to the current context or instance.
  Substructure: This means the scope is defined as a part of a larger structure.
  
  If you attempt to use a different type (for example, a global structure or an invalid reference), you will encounter this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  Check the Definition: Review the definition of the IV_SCOPE parameter in your BOPF action or method. Ensure that it is defined as either local or substructure.
  Modify the Scope: If you are using a global structure or an unsupported type, modify your code to use a valid local or substructure scope.
  Review Related Code: Look at the surrounding code to ensure that the context in which you are trying to use IV_SCOPE is appropriate and that you are not inadvertently passing an incorrect type.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP BOPF documentation for more details on how to define scopes correctly.
  
  Related Information:
  
  BOPF Documentation: SAP provides extensive documentation on the Business Object Processing Framework, which can help you understand the correct usage of scopes and other parameters.
  SAP Community: You can search for similar issues on the SAP Community forums, where other developers may have encountered and resolved the same error.
  Debugging: If you are still having trouble, consider using the debugger to step through the code and inspect the values being passed to IV_SCOPE.
  
  By ensuring that the scope is correctly defined and used, you should be able to resolve the error and proceed with your BOPF implementation.
