Registering with geodatabase is an important task in working with geospatial data in different database situations.

When you want to register a dataset with the geodatabase it creates or uses a ObjectID inside the table.

Unfortunately neither in the documentation nor in a warning/error message it is described, that the SHAPE column needs to be "nullable" to register a dataset with the geodatabase.

Please update the online/tool help and rewrite the error message to

SHAPE column must not have a NOT NULL constraint

instead of:

The column must not have a NOT NULL constraint

Or in a general way:

[COLUMNAME] column must not have a NOT NULL constraint

instead of

The column must not have a NOT NULL constraint
