• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /AIF/API_CUST144 - Custom text &1 contains unsaved changes; reload failed ?

  The SAP error message /AIF/API_CUST144 indicates that there are unsaved changes in a custom text field, which is causing a reload operation to fail. This error typically occurs in the context of the Application Interface Framework (AIF) when working with custom texts or configurations.
  Cause:
  
  Unsaved Changes: The primary cause of this error is that there are unsaved changes in the custom text field that the system is trying to reload. This can happen if a user has made changes to a text field but has not saved those changes before attempting to reload or refresh the data.
  Session Management: If multiple sessions are open, changes made in one session may not be reflected in another, leading to inconsistencies.
  Data Locking: Sometimes, data locking mechanisms can prevent the system from reloading data if there are pending changes.
  
  Solution:
  
  Save Changes: Ensure that any changes made to the custom text field are saved before attempting to reload. Look for a "Save" button or option in the interface and click it.
  Refresh the Session: If you have multiple sessions open, try refreshing or closing the session where the error occurred and then reopening it.
  Check for Locks: If the issue persists, check if there are any locks on the data that might be preventing the reload. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to view and manage locks.
  Clear Cache: Sometimes, clearing the cache or temporary data in the application can help resolve issues related to unsaved changes.
  Consult Documentation: Review the relevant SAP documentation or notes related to AIF and custom texts for any specific instructions or known issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as AIF for Application Interface Framework, SE80 for Object Navigator, and SE37 for function modules if you need to debug or analyze the issue further.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any updates or patches related to AIF and custom text handling. This can provide insights into known issues and fixes.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to properly save changes and manage sessions to avoid this error in the future.
  
  If the problem continues after trying these solutions, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis or development team for further investigation.
