Year 2025 – bye bye

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!
