SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: COM_PME_PARSER - Configuration

• Message number: 036

• Message text: Object variable expected

What causes this issue?

The syntax check found an error. An object variable is expected at the
cursor.
In preconditions, selection conditions, procedures, and actions, you
can use the following object variables:
$ROOT for the highest level object in a multi-level configuration
$SELF for the object currently being processed
$PARENT for the object immediately above current object $SELF in a
multi-level configuration
The object variable is separated from the characteristic by a period:
$ROOT.COLOR
In constraints, you can define object variables under OBJECTS.
T IS_A (300)TABLE
You can also define your own variables for characteristics in
constraints. You then use these variables to refer to the
characteristics.
If you have not defined object variables for the characteristics of the
object, you must define which object the characteristic belongs to. In
this case, the system expects an object variable before the
characteristic.
T.Material = 'oak'
