Solution:

BOPF
orSE80
).- Review BOPF Configuration: Ensure that the node is properly defined in the BOPF configuration. You can check this in the BOPF configuration transaction.
- Activate Business Object: If the business object is not activated, activate it to ensure that all nodes are available in the proxy model.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
