• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PG374 - Structure &1 has no CI include ?

  The SAP error message PG374 indicates that a structure (denoted as &1 in the message) does not have a corresponding CI (Customer Include) associated with it. This typically occurs when you are trying to enhance a standard structure in SAP but the structure does not have a CI include defined, which is necessary for adding custom fields.
  Cause:
  
  No CI Include Defined: The structure you are trying to enhance does not have a CI include. This is common with standard SAP structures that were not designed to be extended.
  Incorrect Enhancement Approach: You may be attempting to use an enhancement method that is not applicable to the structure in question.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Structure Definition: Verify the structure definition in the Data Dictionary (SE11). Look for the CI include section. If it is missing, you cannot add custom fields directly to this structure.
  Use a Different Enhancement Method: If the structure does not support CI includes, consider using other enhancement techniques such as:
  
  BAdIs (Business Add-Ins): These are more flexible and can be used to add custom logic without modifying standard structures.
  User Exits: If applicable, you can use user exits to add custom functionality.
  Custom Tables: If you need to store additional data, consider creating a custom table and linking it to the standard structure through keys.
  
  
  Create a Custom Structure: If you need to extend the functionality significantly, you might create a new custom structure that includes the necessary fields and use it in your custom development.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use SE11 to view and modify data dictionary objects, and SE80 for more comprehensive development work.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific guidance or updates related to the structure you are working with.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation on enhancement techniques to understand the best practices for extending standard objects.
  
  If you continue to face issues, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide more tailored assistance based on your specific scenario.
