Year
2025 was full of challenges for me mostly at personal and family front.
However,
as the year 2025 draws to its close I want to conclude it with a little bit of
fun. Earlier this year there was an SAP Note 2440630 circulating within posts
and discussions on social media. It was painted as a humorous/novelty entry titled
something like “Accident at work: Growling noise in the stomach area.” Some
posts described it as an SAP Note that jokingly diagnoses stomach growling due
to hunger and prescribes eating food. Short excerpt from the note:
It’s filed under Industrial
Hygiene and Safety / Incident/Accident Management and starts like a normal
issue report:
“During work, you suddenly
notice a strange growling background noise… your system administrator cannot
find a solution.”
Then it rules out ABAP, DB,
network, and hardware problems before stating the real cause:
“insufficient supply of
resources for your stomach (hunger).”
The “manual correction
steps” are basically: leave your desk, find food, chew, swallow, repeat until
the sound stops — with a caution to avoid eating too fast.
Apparently after
it went viral SAP has removed it. The Note page currently displays “SAP
Note/KBA 2440630 does not exist” message. Users can no longer access it via the
standard interface, but it was a quite funny things that someone at SAP did :)
My best wishes
for a new year MMXXVI to all of you!
