    The SAP error message E4068 ("Message & renamed") typically indicates that a message in the SAP system has been renamed or modified, which can lead to issues in the application or process that relies on that message. This error can occur in various contexts, such as during the execution of a program, report, or transaction.

    Cause:

    1. Message Renaming: The most common cause is that a message that was previously defined in the system has been renamed or deleted. This can happen during system upgrades, changes in configuration, or modifications made by developers.
    2. Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), and the message was not properly included or was altered, it could lead to this error.
    3. Custom Development: If there are custom programs or enhancements that reference specific messages, renaming those messages without updating the references can cause this error.

    2. Review Changes: If you have access to the transport logs or change logs, review any recent changes made to message classes or messages to see if any renaming occurred.
    3. Update References: If the message has been renamed, update any custom code or configurations that reference the old message name to use the new name.
    4. Restore Original Message: If the message was deleted or renamed unintentionally, consider restoring the original message from a backup or re-creating it in the message class.
    5. Consult Documentation: Check SAP notes or documentation related to the specific message class for any known issues or updates.

    Related Information:

    • Message Classes: In SAP, messages are organized into message classes. Each message class can contain multiple messages, and they are often used for error handling and user notifications.
    • Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like SE91 (Message Maintenance) to view and edit message classes and messages.
    • SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes in the SAP Support Portal that may address specific issues related to message renaming or provide guidance on resolving the error.
