    Cause:

    1. Missing Texts: The short text for the specified object (e.g., a rule, decision table, etc.) is not maintained in the specified language in the BRF configuration.
    2. Language Settings: The language settings in the user profile or the system may not match the language in which the object is being accessed.
    3. Transport Issues: If the object was transported from one system to another, the texts may not have been included in the transport request.

    Solution:

    1. Maintain Short Texts:

      • Go to the BRF configuration and check the specific object (e.g., rule, decision table) for which the error is occurring.
      • Ensure that the short text is maintained for the specified language. You can do this by editing the object and adding the necessary text.
    2. Check Language Settings:

      • You can change the language in the user settings or by using the language parameter in the SAP GUI.
    3. Transport Request:

      • If the object was transported, check the transport request to ensure that all necessary texts were included.
      • If texts are missing, you may need to manually add them in the target system.
