the object have been created in a configuration for the current
knowledge base: It neither appears as an entry object for the
configuration in a knowledge base profile, nor in a bill of material.

System Response

The specified object is copied to the knowledge base runtime version,
but the corresponding dependency cannot be used during runtime. The

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VSCE408 - Class &1 is used in object dependency &3 but is never instantiated ?

  The SAP error message VSCE408 indicates that a class (denoted as &1) is referenced in an object dependency (denoted as &3), but it has not been instantiated. This typically occurs in the context of variant configuration in SAP, where object dependencies are used to define rules and conditions for configurable products.
  
  Cause:
  
  Uninstantiated Class: The class mentioned in the error message is defined but has not been instantiated in the context of the object dependency. This means that while the system recognizes the class, it does not have an instance of it to work with.
  Incorrect Configuration: The object dependency may be incorrectly configured, leading to references to classes that are not properly instantiated.
  Missing Implementation: The class may not have the necessary implementation or methods that are expected to be called within the object dependency.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Instantiate the Class: Ensure that the class is instantiated properly within the object dependency. You can do this by
