  • What causes this issue?

    The Business Rule Framework (BRF) is obsolete. It has been replaced by
    the Business Rule Framework plus (BRFplus).

    System Response

    In SAP S/4HANA, the functional scope of the BRF is restricted by the
    system as follows:
    In SAP S/4HANA On Premise Edition, the user is not allowed to create a
    new application class. This prevents the BRF from being connected to a
    new application.
    In SAP S/4HANA Cloud Edition, a maintenance environment is no longer
    provided for the BRF.

    How to fix this error?

    Use the Business Rule Framework plus (BRFplus) instead of the Business
    Rule Framework (BRF):
    Do not create a new application class in the BRF. Instead, generate a
    BRFplus application.
    Convert an application that is already using the BRF to the BRFplus.
    You must complete this activity before you switch to SAP S/4HANA Cloud
    Edition.
