• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCBO_COMPATIBILITY_C035 - Field &1 was transported. The key flag cannot be changed. ?

  The SAP error message SCBO_COMPATIBILITY_C035 indicates that a field (denoted by &1) has been transported, and as a result, the key flag for that field cannot be changed. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Business Objects or when dealing with data models in SAP systems.
  Cause:
  
  Field Transported: The field in question has been transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production). Once a field is transported, certain properties, such as the key flag, become immutable to maintain data integrity and consistency across systems.
  Key Flag Restrictions: The key flag indicates whether a field is a key field in a data model. Changing this flag after transportation can lead to inconsistencies, especially if the field is already being used in queries, reports, or other data structures.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Field Usage: Before attempting to change the key flag, check if the field is being used in any existing reports, queries, or data models. If it is, you may need to adjust those dependencies first.
  Recreate the Field: If you need to change the key flag, consider creating a new field with the desired properties instead of modifying the existing one. This approach avoids issues related to the transported field.
  Transport the Change: If you have made changes in the development environment, ensure that you transport the new field or the changes to the production environment properly.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SAP you are using, as there may be additional guidelines or best practices for handling such scenarios.
