Step 2. Create association of SAP Business One SDK with SBO files

If, despite the installed application, the SBO file does not start in the SAP Business One SDK application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SBO file with the SAP Business One SDK program.

Step 3. Update SAP Business One SDK to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the SAP Business One SDK program, it is possible that SAP Business One SDK Add-on Related requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the SAP AG website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SBO file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to SBO files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SBO or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected SBO file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of SBO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SBO files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SAP AG, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SBO except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move SBO to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SBO file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
