  The SAP error message DMEE_ABA394 indicates that you are trying to maintain a DMEE (Data Medium Exchange Engine) tree in a language that is not the original language of the tree. This error typically occurs when you attempt to edit or maintain a DMEE tree in a language other than the one in which it was originally created.
  Cause:
  
  The DMEE tree was created in a specific language (e.g., English, German, etc.), and SAP restricts modifications to the original language to ensure data integrity and consistency.
  You may have switched the user interface language in your SAP session to a different language while trying to access the DMEE tree.

  Switch to the Original Language:
  
  Log in to your SAP system and change your user interface language to the original language of the DMEE tree. You can do this by:

  Changing the language in your user profile settings if your system allows it.

  Consult Documentation:
