• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM598 - The technical name is not in the customer name range ?

  The SAP error message RSM598, which states "The technical name is not in the customer name range," typically occurs when you are trying to access or use a technical object (like a program, function module, or other repository object) that is not within the range of names that your customer namespace allows. This is often encountered in the context of ABAP development or when working with custom objects.
  Cause:
  
  Namespace Issue: The object you are trying to access is not defined in the customer namespace. SAP has a naming convention where standard objects are in the SAP namespace (starting with "SAP"), and customer objects should be in a defined customer namespace (usually starting with "Z" or "Y").
  Transport Request: The object may not have been transported correctly, or it may not exist in the system you are working on.
  Authorization: You may not have the necessary authorizations to access the object.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Name: Verify that the technical name of the object you are trying to access is correct and that it is indeed in the customer namespace.
  Create Object in Customer Namespace: If you are developing a new object, ensure that you are using the correct naming convention (e.g., starting with "Z" or "Y").
  Transport Objects: If the object exists in another system (like development) but not in your current system (like production), ensure that it has been properly transported.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the object. You may need to contact your SAP security team to verify your permissions.
  Check Development Class: If the object is part of a development class, ensure that the development class is assigned to the correct namespace.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Namespace Management: SAP systems have a defined namespace management system. Customer namespaces are typically defined during the initial setup of the SAP system.
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the existence and properties of the object.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to this error message.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for guidelines on naming conventions and namespace usage.
