• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OO632 - You cannot redefine the final method & ?

  The SAP error message OO632, which states "You cannot redefine the final method &," typically occurs in ABAP programming when you attempt to override a method that has been declared as "final" in a class. In object-oriented programming, a final method is one that cannot be overridden in any subclass, meaning that its implementation is fixed and cannot be changed.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You have a method in a superclass that is declared as FINAL.
  You attempt to redefine or override this method in a subclass.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you have a few options:
  
  
  Do Not Override the Final Method: If the method is declared as final, you should not attempt to override it in the subclass. Instead, you can use the existing implementation as is.
  
  
  Change the Method Declaration: If you have control over the superclass and you need to allow overriding, you can remove the FINAL keyword from the method declaration in
