• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCODELIST_REGISTRY206 - Context structure &1 in the registry is not global type &2 ?

  The SAP error message SCODELIST_REGISTRY206 indicates that there is an issue with a context structure in the registry that is not defined as a global type. This error typically arises in the context of SAP ABAP development, particularly when dealing with context structures in the Code List Registry.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A context structure is being referenced or used in a way that requires it to be a global type, but it is defined as a local type.
  The context structure is not properly registered or is incorrectly defined in the Code List Registry.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Definition of the Context Structure:
  
  Go to the ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11) and check the definition of the context structure that is causing the error.
  Ensure that the structure is defined as a global type. If it is a local type, you will need to change it to a global type.
  
  
  
  Modify the Structure:
  
  If the structure is local, you can create a new global structure or modify the existing one to make it global.
  Ensure that the global structure is properly defined and meets the requirements for the context in which it is being used.
  
  
  
  Update the Code List Registry:
  
  If you have made changes to the structure, ensure that the Code List Registry is updated accordingly.
  You may need to re-register the context structure in the Code List Registry to reflect the changes.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Review any dependencies or references to the context structure in your code or other objects. Ensure that they are correctly pointing to the updated global structure.
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the functionality to ensure that the error is resolved and that the context structure is being used correctly.
