  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CHK_ENH424 - Inconsistent metadata in implementation &1 (missing entries in ENHOBJ) ?

    The SAP error message CHK_ENH424 indicates that there is inconsistent metadata in an enhancement implementation. Specifically, it points to missing entries in the enhancement object (ENHOBJ) for the implementation specified by &1. This error typically arises when there are discrepancies between the enhancement implementation and the underlying metadata, which can occur due to various reasons such as system upgrades, changes in the enhancement framework, or manual modifications.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Entries: The enhancement implementation is missing required entries in the enhancement object, which can happen if the implementation was not properly activated or if there were changes made to the enhancement object after the implementation was created.
    2. System Upgrades: After an upgrade, some enhancements may not be compatible with the new system version, leading to inconsistencies.
    3. Manual Changes: If there were manual changes made to the enhancement implementation or the enhancement object, it could lead to inconsistencies.
    4. Transport Issues: If the enhancement implementation was transported between systems without the corresponding enhancement object, it could lead to missing entries.

    Solution:

    1. Check Enhancement Implementation: Go to the transaction SE80 or SE19 and check the enhancement implementation for any missing entries. Ensure that all required entries are present.
    2. Re-activate the Enhancement: Sometimes, simply reactivating the enhancement implementation can resolve the issue. You can do this in transaction SE19.
    3. Check for Upgrades: If the issue arose after a system upgrade, check the SAP notes related to the enhancement framework for any known issues or required actions.
    4. Transport Consistency: Ensure that the enhancement object and its implementation are consistently transported across systems. If there are discrepancies, you may need to re-transport the missing objects.
    5. SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error. SAP frequently releases notes that provide solutions or workarounds for known issues.
    6. Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the enhancement framework to ensure that you are following the correct procedures for creating and managing enhancements.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: SE80 (Object Navigator), SE19 (Enhancement Implementation), SE18 (Enhancement Spot).
    • SAP Notes: Always check the SAP Support Portal for any specific notes related to CHK_ENH424 or the enhancement framework.
