  The SAP error message CM_EHFND_REQ170 indicates that there is an issue related to a chemical property in the system. Specifically, it states that a chemical property (identified by &2) does not have an associated property key in the specified client (identified by &1). This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with chemical data management.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Property Key: The chemical property you are trying to access or use does not have a corresponding property key defined in the system. This could be due to data not being maintained correctly or missing configuration.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the chemical properties may not be set up properly, leading to the absence of necessary keys.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system, it’s possible that some properties did not migrate correctly, resulting in missing keys.
  Client-Specific Data: The property may exist in another client but not in the one you are currently working in.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Property Configuration: 
  
  Go to the relevant configuration settings in SAP EHS and verify that the chemical property in question is correctly defined and has an associated property key.
  Ensure that the property key is active and properly linked to the chemical property.
  
  
  
  Maintain Missing Data:
  
  If the property key is missing, you may need to create or maintain it. This can typically be done through the transaction codes related to EHS configuration (e.g., CEMT, CEMT1, etc.).
  Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Run consistency checks or reports to identify any other missing or inconsistent data related to chemical properties.
  
  
  
  Client-Specific Data:
  
  If the property exists in another client, consider transporting the necessary configuration or data to the current client.

  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to chemical properties and property keys for any specific instructions or known issues.
