• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CPF093 - Param. &1, BAdI &2: Source type &3 is not compatible with target type &4. ?

  The SAP error message CPF093 indicates a compatibility issue between the source type and target type in a Business Add-In (BAdI) implementation. This error typically arises when the data types or structures being used in the BAdI do not match the expected types defined in the BAdI interface.
  Cause:
  
  
  Type Mismatch: The source type (the type of data being passed) does not match the target type (the type expected by the BAdI implementation). This can happen if:
  
  The data structure or type has been changed in the BAdI definition.
  The implementation of the BAdI is using an outdated or incorrect data type.
  There is a mismatch in the expected parameters of the BAdI method.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Implementation: If the BAdI is implemented incorrectly, such as using the wrong parameters or data types, this error can occur.
  
  
  Versioning Issues: If there are multiple versions of the BAdI or if the BAdI has been modified, it may lead to inconsistencies in the expected data types.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check BAdI Definition: Review the BAdI definition in transaction SE18 or SE19. Ensure that the data types and structures defined in the BAdI match those being used in the implementation.
  
  
  Update Implementation: If the implementation is using outdated or incorrect data types, update the implementation to use the correct types as defined in the BAdI interface.
  
  
  Parameter Mapping: Ensure that the parameters being passed to the BAdI method are correctly mapped and compatible with the expected types.
  
  
  Re-implement BAdI: If necessary, you may need to re-implement the BAdI to ensure that it adheres to the current definitions and types.
  
  
  Check for Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to the specific BAdI you are working with. There may be known issues or updates that address compatibility problems.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, thoroughly test the BAdI implementation to ensure that it works as expected without triggering the error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE18 (BAdI Definition) and SE19 (BAdI Implementation) to view and modify BAdI definitions and implementations.
  Debugging: If the error persists, consider using the debugger to trace the execution and identify where the type mismatch occurs.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for the specific BAdI you are working with to understand its expected parameters and data types.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the CPF093 error and ensure that your BAdI implementation is compatible with the expected data types.
