  The SAP error message /BOBF/CONF134 Superfluous attribute &1 found for database &2 of node &3 typically occurs in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) in SAP. This error indicates that there is an attribute in the database table that is not defined in the corresponding BOPF node. Here’s a breakdown of the components of the error message:
  
  &1: This placeholder represents the name of the superfluous attribute.
  &2: This placeholder represents the name of the database table.
  &3: This placeholder represents the name of the BOPF node.
  
  Cause
  The error is usually caused by a mismatch between the database schema and the BOPF definition. Specifically, it occurs when:
  
  An attribute exists in the database table that is not defined in the BOPF node's structure.
  There may have been changes made to the database table (like adding a new column) that were not reflected in the BOPF configuration.
  The BOPF node might have been modified or not properly regenerated after changes to the underlying database.
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Database Table: 
  
  Use transaction SE11 to view the database table mentioned in the error message. Check for the attribute that is causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Review BOPF Configuration:
  
  Use transaction BOBF to access the BOPF configuration for the node mentioned in the error message. Verify that all attributes in the database table are defined in the BOPF node.
  
  
  
  Update BOPF Node:
  
  If the attribute is indeed superfluous (i.e., it should not be there), you may need to remove it from the database table or adjust the BOPF configuration to match the current database schema.
  If the attribute should be part of the BOPF node, add it to the BOPF configuration.
  
  
  
  Regenerate BOPF:
  
  After making changes, regenerate the BOPF node to ensure that the changes are reflected in the framework. This can typically be done in the BOPF transaction.
