Clean Core Object Guard reports this finding with the default severity “Critical”.
About the engine: Tier 1/2/3 extensibility classification & classic modification detector
How to fix it
Refactor the statement as described in the finding; it is not part of the ABAP Cloud language version.
How ERP Preflight detects it
The analysis is deterministic: the same exported files and the same knowledge snapshot always produce the same findings. No SAP system connection is required — you upload exports.
- Engine
- Clean Core Object Guard
- Accepted formats
- ABAP, ZIP, JSON
- What to export
Custom ABAP source (report, class, function group include), an abapGit repository ZIP containing *.abap files, or an object list JSON {'objects': [{'name', 'type': TABL|FUNC|CLAS|DDLS}]} for release-status lookup.
- Required input
- ABAP source with at least one statement, an abapGit ZIP, or an object list
- Evidence
- Each finding points to the artifact path, line and column, the code snippet and the SHA-256 of the uploaded file. Findings without such a pointer are demoted to confidence UNKNOWN.
- Confidence
- Each finding names the knowledge it relies on (Knowledge-graph released-object snapshot (configuration.released_objects)) and is capped by that source’s verification status.
- Knowledge sources
- Knowledge-graph released-object snapshot (configuration.released_objects) — verified against the official source
- Target releases of the engine
- S4H_2022, S4H_2023, S4HANA_CLOUD_2402, S4HANA_CLOUD_2408
