• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS_TOOL895 - Elementary type &1 has changed ?

  The SAP error message:
  WS_TOOL895: Elementary type &1 has changed
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when there is a change detected in the definition of an elementary data type (domain or data element) that is already in use in the system. Specifically, the structure or attributes of the elementary type have been modified after it was initially created or used in programs, tables, or other dictionary objects.
  For example, if you change the length, data type, or other fundamental properties of a domain or data element that is referenced elsewhere, SAP detects this inconsistency and raises this message to warn you that the elementary type has changed.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Elementary types in SAP are basic data types defined in the ABAP Dictionary (DDIC), such as domains or data elements.
  When these types are changed, all dependent objects (programs, structures, tables) might be affected.
  SAP issues this message to prevent inconsistencies or runtime errors due to incompatible type changes.
