  Deletion or modification of enhancement objects that are still referenced in the implementation.
  Transport issues where the enhancement implementation was not transported correctly between systems.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Entries: The specific mention of "incorrect entries in ENHOBJ" suggests that there may be entries in the enhancement object table that do not correspond to valid or existing enhancements.
