• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SEEF_BASE606 - Syntax check is not possible: &1 is a multiple-use include ?

  The SAP error message SEEF_BASE606 indicates that a syntax check cannot be performed because the specified object (in this case, an include program) is a multiple-use include. This typically occurs when you are trying to perform a syntax check on an include program that is designed to be included in multiple other programs or function modules.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple-Use Include: The include program you are trying to check is defined as a multiple-use include. This means it is intended to be included in various programs, and as such, it cannot be checked in isolation.
  Incorrect Context: You might be trying to execute a syntax check on an include directly rather than on the main program that uses it.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Main Program: Instead of checking the include directly, perform the syntax check on the main program or the program that includes the multiple-use include. This will allow the syntax check to consider the context in which the include is used.
  Use the Correct Transaction: If you are using a transaction code (like SE38 or SE80) to check the syntax, ensure you are selecting the main program rather than the include.
  Review the Include: If you need to check the syntax of the include itself, you can do so by ensuring that it is included in a program that you can check, or by creating a temporary program that includes the multiple-use include and then performing the syntax check on that program.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Multiple-Use Includes: In SAP ABAP, multiple-use includes are designed to be reused across different programs. They often contain common code or definitions that are shared among various programs.
  Syntax Check: The syntax check is a feature in the ABAP Workbench that allows developers to verify the correctness of their code before execution. It checks for syntax errors and other issues that could prevent the program from running correctly.
  ABAP Development Tools: Familiarize yourself with the ABAP development environment, including transactions like SE80 (Object Navigator) and SE38 (ABAP Editor), which can help you manage and check your programs and includes effectively.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SEEF_BASE606 error and successfully perform syntax checks on your ABAP programs.
