• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_BOMBOS017 - Creation of specification for material &1 canceled in a user exit ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_BOMBOS017 indicates that the creation of a specification for a material has been canceled in a user exit. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with material specifications.
  Cause:
  
  User Exit Logic: The error is often caused by custom logic implemented in a user exit or BAdI (Business Add-In) that is designed to validate or manipulate data during the specification creation process. If the logic encounters an issue (e.g., validation failure, missing data, or specific conditions not being met), it may cancel the process.
  Data Issues: There may be missing or incorrect data in the material master or related records that the user exit is trying to validate.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration settings in the EHS module or related areas can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Exit Implementation: Review the code in the user exit or BAdI that is being triggered during the specification creation. Look for any conditions that could lead to the cancellation of the process. Ensure that the logic is functioning as intended and that it handles all expected scenarios.
  Validate Input Data: Ensure that all required fields in the material master and related records are filled out correctly. Check for any missing or invalid data that could cause the user exit to fail.
  Debugging: If you have access to the development environment, you can set breakpoints in the user exit code to debug the issue. This will help you identify the exact point of failure and the conditions leading to the cancellation.
  Consult Documentation: Review any documentation related to the user exit or BAdI to understand its intended functionality and any prerequisites for successful execution.
  SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide guidance on similar issues.
