• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_DML_ENGINE054 - Object texts were changed ?

  The SAP error message COM_DML_ENGINE054 indicates that object texts have been changed in the context of a data management operation, typically related to the handling of master data or transactional data in SAP systems. This error can occur in various scenarios, such as during data uploads, data migrations, or when performing mass changes to data objects.
  Cause:
  The error usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Concurrent Changes: Another user or process has modified the object texts while your transaction was being processed.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data being processed, such as missing or incorrect references to object texts.
  Locking Issues: The object you are trying to modify may be locked by another transaction, preventing your changes from being applied.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the COM_DML_ENGINE054 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check for Concurrent Changes:
  
  Ensure that no other users or processes are modifying the same object at the same time. If possible, coordinate with other users to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  
  Refresh Data:
  
  If you suspect that the data has changed, refresh the data in your session. This can often be done by reloading the relevant data or re-executing the transaction.
  
  
  
  Review Object Texts:
  
  Check the object texts for any discrepancies or changes that may have occurred. Ensure that the texts are consistent and correctly referenced.
  
  
  
  Retry the Operation:
  
  After ensuring that there are no concurrent changes and that the data is consistent, retry the operation that triggered the error.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks on the object. If you find any locks that are preventing your changes, you may need to wait for the locks to be released or contact the user who holds the lock.
