  SAP Error Message WY165
  Message Text:
  
  The entered object type &1 does not correspond to expected object type &2
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when an object type entered or referenced in a transaction or program does not match the expected object type defined by the system or the specific process. In SAP, many processes require specific object types (e.g., business objects, document types, material types) to be used consistently. If the system expects one object type but receives another, it raises this error.
  Typical scenarios include:
  
  Entering a wrong object type in a transaction or customizing.
  Passing an incorrect object type as a parameter in a function module or BAPI.
  Mismatch between the object type in master data and the expected object type in a process.
  Custom code or enhancements passing incorrect object types.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Object Types:
  
  Identify the object type you entered (represented by &1 in the message).
  Identify the expected object type (represented by &2).
  Verify both object types in the context of the transaction or program.
  
  
  
  Correct the Input:
  
  If you manually entered the object type, correct it to the expected one.
  If the object type is derived from master data or configuration, verify the master data or customizing settings.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code or Enhancements:
  
  If the error occurs in a custom program or user exit, check the code where the object type is assigned or passed.
  Ensure the correct object type is used according to the business logic.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Sometimes, the error arises due to incorrect configuration in IMG (Implementation Guide).
  Verify the configuration related to object types in the relevant module.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the cause is not obvious, debug the transaction or program to see where the object type mismatch occurs.
  Check the values of the object type variables at runtime.
