ENHANCEMENT249 - Details

• The SAP error message "ENHANCEMENT249 Structure include name & does not begin with 'CI_'" typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify an enhancement implementation in SAP, and the structure include name does not follow the naming convention required by the system.
  
  Cause:
  
  Naming Convention Violation: In SAP, enhancement implementations often require that structure includes begin with the prefix 'CI_'. This is a standard naming convention that helps the system identify enhancement-related structures.
  Incorrect Structure Name: The structure name you are trying to use does not conform to the expected format, which can lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Rename the Structure Include: Ensure that the structure include you are trying to use starts with 'CI_'. For example, if your structure is named MY_STRUCTURE, you should rename it to CI_MY_STRUCTURE.
  Check Enhancement Implementation: If you are working within an enhancement implementation, verify that all structure includes used in the implementation adhere to the naming convention.
