• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CL_SEA_MESSAGES020 - Multiple BAdI definitions found, auto choice not possible ?

  The SAP error message CL_SEA_MESSAGES020 indicates that there are multiple Business Add-In (BAdI) definitions available for a particular implementation, and the system is unable to automatically determine which one to use. This situation typically arises when there are multiple active implementations of a BAdI, and the system cannot decide which one to execute.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Implementations: There are multiple active implementations of the same BAdI, and the system does not have a clear way to choose one.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration of the BAdI might not be set up correctly, leading to ambiguity in which implementation should be executed.
  Custom Development: Custom developments may have created additional implementations that conflict with standard ones.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Active Implementations:
  
  Go to transaction SE18 (BAdI Definition) and enter the name of the BAdI that is causing the issue.
  Click on the "Implementations" button to see all active implementations.
  Review the list and determine if there are any unnecessary or conflicting implementations.
  
  
  
  Adjust Implementation Priority:
  
  If you need to keep multiple implementations, you can adjust the priority of the implementations. The system will then choose the one with the highest priority.
  You can do this in transaction SE19 (BAdI Implementation) by changing the priority of the implementations.
  
  
  
  Deactivate Unused Implementations:
  
  If certain implementations are not needed, consider deactivating them to resolve the conflict.
  This can also be done in transaction SE19.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If there are custom implementations, review the code to ensure that it is necessary and does not conflict with standard implementations.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Check the SAP documentation for the specific BAdI to understand its intended use and any recommendations regarding multiple implementations.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAdI (Business Add-In): A BAdI is a type of enhancement in SAP that allows developers to add custom functionality to standard SAP applications without modifying the original code.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SE18: To view BAdI definitions and their implementations.
  SE19: To create or modify BAdI implementations.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues related to the BAdI in question.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error message and ensure that the correct BAdI implementation is executed.
