The SAP error message
/CFG/CTXE_MSG028 Object is having supertype without its derivation
typically occurs in the context of the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG) or when working with the SAP Business Configuration (BC) or SAP Customizing Framework. This error indicates that there is an issue with the object hierarchy in the configuration, specifically that a supertype (a higher-level object) is defined without a proper derivation or subclassing.Cause:
- Missing Derivation: The supertype is defined, but there is no corresponding subtype that derives from it. This can happen if the subtype was deleted or not created.
- Configuration Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the configuration settings, leading to a situation where the system expects a subtype but cannot find it.
- Transport Issues: If the configuration was transported from one system to another, it might not have included all necessary objects, leading to missing derivations.
Solution:
- Check Object Hierarchy: Review the object hierarchy in the configuration settings. Ensure that for every supertype, there is a corresponding subtype defined.
- Create Missing Subtypes: If a subtype is missing, create it in the system. Ensure that it properly derives from the supertype.
- Review Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport requests to ensure that all necessary objects were included and correctly transported.
- Consistency Check: Use transaction codes like
SE11
(Data Dictionary) orSE80
(Object Navigator) to check for inconsistencies in the object definitions.- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific configuration you are working with to ensure that all necessary steps have been followed.

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.
