Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CFG/CC_CORE_CONFIG005 - Creation of entry &1 undone as it is outside of the customer namespace ?

  The SAP error message /CFG/CC_CORE_CONFIG005 indicates that there was an attempt to create a configuration entry that is outside of the customer namespace. This typically occurs in the context of customizing or configuring certain aspects of SAP systems, particularly in the area of configuration management.
  Cause:
  
  Namespace Violation: In SAP, objects are often organized into namespaces. The customer namespace is usually defined for custom developments and configurations. If an entry is attempted to be created in a namespace that is not designated for customer use (e.g., standard SAP namespaces), this error will occur.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration might be incorrectly set up, leading to attempts to create entries in the wrong namespace.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration is being transported from one system to another, it may not have the correct namespace settings.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Namespace: Ensure that the entry you are trying to create is within the correct customer namespace. Customer namespaces typically start with a specific prefix (like Z or Y). If you are trying to create an entry in a standard namespace, you will need to change it to the appropriate customer namespace.
  Modify Configuration: If you have access to the configuration settings, modify the entry to ensure it adheres to the customer namespace rules.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), or SPRO (Customizing) to check the configuration and make necessary adjustments.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific configuration you are working on to ensure compliance with namespace rules.
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is a critical configuration.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Namespaces in SAP: Understanding how namespaces work in SAP is crucial. The customer namespace is reserved for custom developments, while standard SAP objects reside in their respective namespaces.
  Transport Management: If the issue arises during a transport, ensure that the transport request is correctly configured and that the objects are assigned to the appropriate namespace.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context or solutions.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully create the necessary configuration entries within the appropriate namespace.
