another system by means of RFC (remote function call), as this triggers
a database commit.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1B882 - Data update: No RFC call allowed here (&1) ?

  The SAP error message 1B882 with the description "Data update: No RFC call allowed here (&1)" typically occurs when there is an attempt to perform a Remote Function Call (RFC) in a context where it is not permitted, such as during a data update operation. This error is often encountered in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when working with database updates or modifications.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the system is trying to execute an RFC call during a database update operation. In SAP, certain operations, especially those that modify data, are restricted from making RFC calls to ensure data integrity and consistency. This is because RFC calls can lead to unexpected behavior or data inconsistencies if they are executed during a critical update process.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can consider the following approaches:
  
  
  Review the Code: Check the ABAP code where the error occurs. Look for any RFC calls (e.g., CALL FUNCTION ... DESTINATION ...) that are being executed during a data update. You will need to refactor the code to ensure that RFC calls are not made during these operations.
  
  
  Use Asynchronous Processing: If the RFC call is necessary, consider using asynchronous processing methods, such as background jobs or event-driven architectures, to handle the RFC call outside of the data update context.
  
  
  Error Handling: Implement proper error handling to catch this specific error and provide meaningful feedback to the user or log it for further analysis.
  
  
  Check for BAPIs: If you are using BAPIs (Business Application Programming Interfaces), ensure that they are being called in the correct context. Some BAPIs may have restrictions on when they can be called.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific function module or method you are using to understand any restrictions or guidelines regarding RFC calls.

  Data Update Operations: These include any operations that modify the database, such as INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE statements.
  ABAP Programming: Understanding the context of ABAP programming and the lifecycle of database transactions is crucial for troubleshooting this error.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be helpful to consult with an SAP Basis or ABAP expert, or to reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
