• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHFND_PCEP231 - Task set to completed as dependent object &1 of type &2 doesn't exist. ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHFND_PCEP231 indicates that a task has been set to completed, but the dependent object specified (of type indicated) does not exist in the system. This error typically arises in the context of process management or workflow scenarios where tasks are dependent on certain objects being present.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Object: The most common cause is that the dependent object (e.g., a business object, document, or configuration item) that the task relies on has been deleted or was never created.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the workflow or process that leads to the system expecting an object that is not available.
  Data Inconsistency: There could be inconsistencies in the database or application layer that prevent the system from recognizing the dependent object.
  Transport Issues: If the system is part of a transport landscape, the object may not have been transported correctly to the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Verify Object Existence: Check if the dependent object (indicated by &1 of type &2) exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes relevant to the object type (e.g., SE11 for database tables, SE80 for development objects).
  Recreate Missing Objects: If the object is missing, you may need to recreate it or restore it from a backup if it was deleted.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings related to the task and ensure that all dependencies are correctly defined and that the necessary objects are in place.
  Review Workflow Definitions: If the error is related to a workflow, check the workflow definitions to ensure that all required objects are correctly referenced and available.
  Transport Management: If the issue is related to a transport, ensure that all necessary objects have been included in the transport request and that the transport has been successfully imported into the target system.
