• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_MGW_GENER013 - Skipped generating class '&1'! No overwrite ?

  The SAP error message /IWBEP/CM_MGW_GENER013 Skipped generating class '&1'! No overwrite? typically occurs during the generation of classes in the SAP Gateway framework, particularly when working with OData services. This message indicates that the system has skipped the generation of a specific class because it already exists and is not set to be overwritten.
  Cause:
  
  Existing Class: The class that the system is trying to generate already exists in the system.
  No Overwrite Setting: The generation settings may be configured to prevent overwriting existing classes. This is often a safety feature to avoid losing custom modifications or implementations.
  Development Environment: The error may also occur in a development environment where certain classes are locked or not available for modification.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Existing Classes: Verify if the class mentioned in the error message already exists. You can do this by navigating to the ABAP Workbench (SE80) and searching for the class.
  Delete or Rename Existing Class: If the existing class is not needed, you can delete it or rename it to allow the new class to be generated.
  Adjust Generation Settings: If you want to allow overwriting, you may need to adjust the settings in the service definition or the generation options. This can usually be done in the Service Builder (transaction code SEGW).
  Regenerate the Service: After making the necessary changes, try regenerating the OData service again. You can do this by right-clicking on the service in the Service Builder and selecting "Generate".
  Check for Locks: Ensure that there are no locks on the class or related objects that might prevent the generation process.
