• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP790 - It is not possible to specify fields and a DDIC-reference ?

  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP790 indicates that there is a conflict in the way fields and Data Dictionary (DDIC) references are being specified in an object model. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Enterprise Search or when working with object models in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to define fields in an object model while also trying to reference a DDIC structure or table. In SAP, you cannot mix direct field specifications with DDIC references in the same context. This is a design constraint to ensure consistency and clarity in how data is represented and accessed.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that you are either specifying fields directly or using a DDIC reference, but not both at the same time. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Review Object Model Definition: Check the object model definition where the error is occurring. Look for any fields that are being defined alongside a DDIC reference.
  
  
  Choose One Method:
  
  If you want to use a DDIC reference, remove any direct field specifications that conflict with it.
  If you prefer to specify fields directly, ensure that you are not referencing any DDIC structures or tables.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Configuration: Make the necessary adjustments in the configuration or coding to align with the chosen method.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the adjustments, test the object model to ensure that the error is resolved and that the functionality works as expected.
