• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_DML_ENGINE081 - Objects of owner & cannot be processed in this system ?

  The SAP error message COM_DML_ENGINE081 indicates that there is an issue with processing objects that belong to a specific owner in the system. This typically occurs in the context of data management and object handling within SAP, particularly in the areas of data migration, data transfer, or when working with specific business objects.
  Cause:
  The error message usually arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access or process objects owned by a different user or owner.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to restrict access to certain objects based on ownership, which can prevent processing if the ownership does not match.
  Data Consistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data or objects that are being processed, leading to the inability to handle them correctly.
  Transport Issues: If the objects were transported from another system, there may be issues related to the transport configuration or the state of the objects in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the COM_DML_ENGINE081 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and process the objects in question. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the SAP system.
  
  
  Verify Object Ownership: Identify the owner of the objects that are causing the error. If the objects belong to a different user, you may need to either change the ownership or have a user with the appropriate access rights perform the operation.
  
  
  Review System Configuration: Check the system settings related to object ownership and processing. Ensure that there are no restrictions that would prevent the processing of objects owned by different users.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the data and objects involved. This may involve using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to inspect the objects.
  
  
  Transport Management: If the issue is related to transported objects, review the transport logs and ensure that the transport was successful and that all dependencies are met.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific error message for additional guidance and troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance, providing them with detailed information about the error and the context in which it occurs.
  
  
  Related Information:
