the customer data because if same records are delivered by SAP in future
releases then customer created records will be overwritten.
Namespace restriction is applied on the key fields of an application.
Customers cannot create records starting with below mentioned SAP Best
practice content namespace restrictions.
SAP reserved character fields - S, Q, R, X, P, Y
SAP reserved numeric fields - 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0

How to fix this error?
If customer must create the entries with SAP reserved patterns for a
business reason, then corresponding entries in the /SMB/EXM_TABLES
should be maintained to exclude the namespace checks for an application
in cloud.
