• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SA385 - Press Enter to create dev.version of data model & ?

  The SAP error message SA385, which states "Press Enter to create dev.version of data model &," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when you are trying to create or modify a data model, and the system is prompting you to create a development version of that model.
  Cause:
  
  Development Version Not Created: The error indicates that a development version of the data model you are trying to work with has not been created yet. In SAP BW, data models (like InfoObjects, InfoProviders, etc.) often require a development version to be created before they can be activated or modified.
  Transport Request Issues: If you are working in a system where transport requests are used, the system may require a development version to be associated with a transport request.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to create or modify the development version.
  
  Solution:
  
  Press Enter: The immediate solution is to follow the prompt and press Enter. This action should initiate the creation of the development version of the data model.
  Check Transport Request: Ensure that you have a valid transport request assigned to your changes. If not, you may need to create one or assign an existing one.
  Authorization Check: Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to create or modify the data model. If you lack the required permissions, contact your SAP administrator to grant you the necessary access.
  Review Development Environment: Make sure you are working in the correct development environment (e.g., Development, Quality Assurance, Production) and that you are following the correct procedures for creating or modifying data models.
