  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK248 - SADL: Enter DDIC structure which will carry Data Source Extension Fields ?

    The SAP error message CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK248, which states "SADL: Enter DDIC structure which will carry Data Source Extension Fields," typically occurs in the context of using the SAP Application Development Layer (SADL) for data source extensions in SAP applications. This error indicates that the system is expecting a Data Dictionary (DDIC) structure to be specified, which will hold the extension fields for a data source.

    Cause:

    1. Missing DDIC Structure: The error usually arises when a required DDIC structure is not specified or is missing in the configuration of the data source extension.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the data source extension may not have been set up correctly, leading to the system not being able to identify the appropriate DDIC structure.
    3. Incompatibility: There may be an incompatibility between the data source and the extension fields being defined.

    Solution:

    1. Define a DDIC Structure: Ensure that a DDIC structure is created in the SAP system that will hold the extension fields. This can be done using transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary).

      • Go to SE11, select "Data Structure," and create a new structure that includes the necessary fields.
    2. Configure Data Source Extension: After creating the DDIC structure, go back to the configuration of the data source extension and specify the newly created DDIC structure.

      • This can typically be done in the SADL configuration settings where you define the data source and its extensions.
    3. Check for Existing Structures: If you believe a DDIC structure already exists, double-check that it is correctly referenced in the data source extension configuration.

    4. Review Documentation: Consult the SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on setting up data source extensions and the required configurations.

    5. Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the extension fields are functioning as expected.

    Related Information:

    • SADL (SAP Application Development Layer): This is a framework that allows developers to create and extend data models in SAP applications.
    • Data Dictionary (DDIC): This is a central repository in SAP that contains definitions of data structures, tables, views, and other data-related objects.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), and SE37 (Function Module) for further development and debugging.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
