STW_OL604 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: STW_OL - Messages of the Object Layer (Stream Work Library)

• Message number: 604

• Message text: Obsolete BAdI implementation detected

What causes this issue?

The BAdI STW_ITEM_FACTORY has been made obsolete by an architectural gap
discovered after the BAdI was published. The change was made in the
SAP_BASIS releases:
7.02 SP12
7.30 SP08
7.31 SP05
7.32 SP00

System Response

The execution of the current process has to be stopped to avoid
inconsistent code executions.

How to fix this error?

The new BAdI STW_ITEM_FACTORY2 was introduced instead. Move all of your
implementations to the new BAdI. Here you will find that a new filter
value SCOPE has been added.
This filter value is a freely definable string value. You can set it
using the new interface method IF_STW_API->SET_SCOPE. This can be done
once per roll area, or you can do it each time before you trigger an API
call which triggers the creation of StreamWork items.
