  The SAP error message CM_EHHSS_INC_COMMON273 indicates that a Business Add-In (BAdI) related to changing the incident category is either not implemented or not activated in your SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when working with incident management.
  Cause:
  
  BAdI Not Implemented: The specific BAdI for changing the incident category has not been implemented in your system. This means that the necessary custom logic to handle the change in incident categories is missing.
  BAdI Not Activated: Even if the BAdI has been implemented, it may not be activated. In SAP, BAdIs need to be both implemented and activated to function correctly.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues or missing settings in the EHS module that prevent the BAdI from being recognized or executed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Implement the BAdI:
  
  Go to transaction SE18 (BAdI Definition) and enter the name of the BAdI related to incident category changes (you may need to check the documentation or SAP notes for the exact name).
  If the BAdI is not implemented, you can create an implementation by going to transaction SE19 (BAdI Implementation) and following the steps to create a new implementation.
  
  
  
  Activate the BAdI:
  
  After implementing the BAdI, ensure that it is activated. You can do this in transaction SE19 by selecting your implementation and activating it.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration settings in the EHS module to ensure that everything is set up correctly. This may involve checking the settings for incident management and ensuring that all necessary components are configured.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific BAdI for any additional steps or requirements that may be necessary for proper implementation and activation.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After implementing and activating the BAdI, perform tests to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the incident category changes are processed as expected.
