• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DRF_COMMON008 - Key Mapping does not support Object Type &1 ?

  The SAP error message DRF_COMMON008 indicates that there is an issue with key mapping for a specific object type in the Data Replication Framework (DRF). This error typically arises when the system is unable to find a valid key mapping for the specified object type, which can prevent data replication from occurring as expected.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Key Mapping: The most common cause is that the key mapping for the specified object type has not been defined in the system.
  Incorrect Object Type: The object type being referenced may not be supported for key mapping in the current configuration.

  Transport Issues: If the configuration was recently transported from another system, it may not have been set up correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Key Mapping:
  
  Go to the transaction code DRFIMG (or use the relevant path in the SAP Easy Access menu).
