How To Fix CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK368 - Reuse of data Type &1 not allowed

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK - Custom Fields: Messages for Registry Check

• Message number: 368

• Message text: Reuse of data Type &1 not allowed

What causes this issue?

Reuse of proxy data types in SOAP messages is only allowed under certain
circumstances. Data type <(>&<)>1 is also used in operation <(>&<)>3 of
service interface <(>&<)>2. A combination of proxy data type reuse and
multiple registrations in different operations or service interfaces is
not allowed.

System Response

Registration of proxy data type <(>&<)>1 for extensibility is not
allowed for the current operation.

How to fix this error?

Ensure that you use different proxy data types in each operation. Don't
make use of the data type reuse feature if you want to register the same
proxy data type in different operations and as well in different
business contexts. Further you can open an incident to component
BC-SRV-APS-EXT-FLD to double check this restriction for your use case.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK368 - Reuse of data Type &1 not allowed ?

  The SAP error message CFD_REGISTRY_CHECK368, which states "Reuse of data type &1 not allowed," typically occurs in the context of data modeling or data type definitions within the SAP system. This error indicates that there is an attempt to reuse a data type that is not permitted due to certain constraints or rules in the system.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Type Reuse: The error usually arises when a data type is being reused in a way that violates the system's rules. This can happen if:
  
  The data type is already in use in a different context where it cannot be reused.
  The data type is defined in a way that does not allow for its reuse in the current context (e.g., it may be a complex type that cannot be instantiated multiple times).
  
  
  
  Modeling Constraints: In some cases, the data model may have specific constraints that prevent certain data types from being reused to maintain data integrity or consistency.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Data Type Definition: Review the definition of the data type &1 (the specific data type mentioned in the error message). Ensure that it is defined correctly and is suitable for reuse in the context you are trying to use it.
  
  
  Create a New Data Type: If the data type cannot be reused due to system constraints, consider creating a new data type that meets your requirements instead of trying to reuse the existing one.
  
  
  Modify Usage Context: If possible, modify the context in which you are trying to use the data type. This may involve changing the structure or the way the data type is being referenced.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on data type usage and constraints in your version of SAP.
  
  
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP system is up to date, as there may be patches or updates that address issues related to data type handling.
