• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SATC_CI_CFG020 - Specify either a check variant or enable at least one dynamic check ?

  The SAP error message SATC_CI_CFG020 indicates that a check variant has not been specified, or that no dynamic checks have been enabled in the context of the SAP Code Inspector (SCI). This error typically arises when you are trying to execute a code check without having the necessary configurations in place.
  Cause:
  
  No Check Variant Specified: The user has not selected a check variant for the code inspection. A check variant defines which checks will be performed during the inspection.
  No Dynamic Checks Enabled: The user has not enabled any dynamic checks, which are checks that are performed at runtime rather than statically during the code analysis.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Specify a Check Variant:
  
  Go to the Code Inspector transaction (transaction code: SCI).
  Create or select a check variant that includes the checks you want to perform.
  Ensure that the check variant is assigned to the inspection you are trying to run.
  
  
  
  Enable Dynamic Checks:
  
  In the check variant settings, ensure that at least one dynamic check is enabled.
  You can do this by navigating to the "Dynamic Checks" section within the check variant configuration and selecting the appropriate checks.
  
  
  
  Save and Execute:
  
  After making the necessary changes, save the check variant.
  Re-run the code inspection to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Check Variants: These are predefined sets of checks that can be reused across different inspections. You can create custom check variants based on your project requirements.
  Dynamic Checks: These checks are executed during runtime and can help identify issues that may not be apparent through static analysis alone.
  SAP Documentation: For more detailed information, refer to the official SAP documentation on Code Inspector and check variants, which provides guidelines on how to configure and use these features effectively.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SATC_CI_CFG020 error and successfully run your code inspections in SAP.
