SAP Error Message - Details

• Message class: ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_RP2 - Object Model Repository (2)

• Message number: 581

• Message text: System software component &2 of software component &1 cannot be changed

What causes this issue?

A software component is relevant for GTABKEY registration if it is
assigned to a system software component other than LOCAL or HOME.
This means that all entities (e.g. models, nodes, node fields, response
fields,...) of this software component are registered in the central
GTABKEY server so that their internal keys are kept equal when being
created on different systems.
If a software component is relevant for GTABKEY registration this cannot
be revoked.
The system software component is derived from the package assigned to a
software component.
Software component &v1& is assigned to system software component &v2&.
Thus its package cannot be changed to &v3& (assigned to system software
component &v4&).
