E0716 - Details

• The SAP error message E0716 indicates that you are trying to edit an object that is in the SAP name range, which is typically reserved for SAP standard objects. This error usually occurs when you attempt to create or modify an object (like a program, function module, or class) with a name that falls within the SAP namespace (which usually starts with "SAP" or is in the range of "SAP" or "SAP_").
  
  Cause:
  
  Namespace Conflict: You are trying to create or modify an object using a name that is reserved for SAP standard objects.
  Incorrect Naming Convention: The naming convention for custom objects in SAP requires that they be created in a customer namespace (usually starting with "Z" or "Y").
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Use a Custom Namespace: Ensure that you are using a name that starts with "Z" or "Y" for your custom objects. For example, instead of naming your program SAP_MY_PROGRAM, you should name it Z_MY_PROGRAM
