• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG659 - Runtime objects of conv.obj. &1 regenerated due to time stamp deviation ?

  The SAP error message DMCLG659 indicates that there is a timestamp deviation between the runtime objects of a conversion object and the corresponding source objects. This typically occurs in the context of data conversion or data migration processes where the system detects that the runtime objects (like programs or function modules) have been regenerated due to changes in the underlying source objects.
  Cause:
  
  
  Timestamp Deviation: The primary cause of this error is that the timestamp of the runtime objects does not match the timestamp of the source objects. This can happen if:
  
  The source objects were modified after the runtime objects were generated.
  There was a system upgrade or transport that affected the objects.
  The objects were manually changed in the development environment without regenerating the runtime objects.
  
  
  
  Development Changes: Changes made in the development environment (like changes to data structures, function modules, or programs) that have not been reflected in the runtime objects.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Regenerate Runtime Objects: The most straightforward solution is to regenerate the runtime objects. This can typically be done by:
  
  Using transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE37 (Function Module) to locate the affected objects and regenerate them.
  Running the relevant program or transaction that triggers the regeneration of the runtime objects.
  
  
  
  Check for Modifications: Review the change logs or transport logs to identify any recent changes made to the source objects. Ensure that all necessary objects are up to date.
  
  
  Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the affected objects to ensure that all dependencies are correctly aligned. This can be done using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE14 (Database Utility).
  
  
  Transport Management: If the issue arises after a transport, ensure that all related objects have been transported correctly and that there are no missing dependencies.
  
  
  System Restart: In some cases, a system restart may help clear any temporary inconsistencies.
