• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CHK_CLASH_OBJECTS213 - Field &1 has different search helps: local &2, remote &3 ?

  The SAP error message CHK_CLASH_OBJECTS213 indicates that there is a conflict in the search helps associated with a field in a database table or structure. Specifically, the error message states that the field &1 has different search helps defined: a local search help &2 and a remote search help &3. This typically occurs when there are inconsistencies in the way search helps are defined for a particular field in the data dictionary.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Search Helps: The field in question has been assigned both a local search help (specific to the current context) and a remote search help (which may be defined in another system or context). This can happen during the development process or when changes are made to the data dictionary.
  Data Dictionary Changes: Changes made to the data dictionary (like adding or modifying search helps) without proper synchronization can lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If the transport of objects between systems (like from development to quality assurance or production) is not handled correctly, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Search Helps: Check the field definition in the data dictionary (transaction SE11) to see the assigned search helps. You can do this by:
  
  Navigating to the field in the relevant table or structure.
  Checking the "Search Help" tab to see which search helps are assigned.
  
  
  
  Decide on Search Help: Determine whether you want to keep the local search help, the remote search help, or if you need to create a new search help that combines the necessary elements of both.
  
  If you decide to keep one, remove the other from the field definition.
  
  
  
  Adjust Data Dictionary: Make the necessary adjustments in the data dictionary:
  
  If you want to keep the local search help, remove the remote search help from the field definition.
  If you want to keep the remote search help, remove the local search help.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes: If this issue arose due to transport, ensure that the changes are correctly transported across systems. You may need to re-transport the relevant objects or manually adjust them in the target system.
  
  
  Testing: After making the changes, test the functionality to ensure that the search help works as expected without any errors.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), and SE37 (Function Module) to manage and review search helps.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for detailed information on search helps and their configuration.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to this error message.
