• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CI_QUICKFIX_FAILED112 - Macro Calls cannot be action statements ?

  The SAP error message CI_QUICKFIX_FAILED112 indicates that there is an issue with the macro calls in your ABAP code. Specifically, it suggests that the macro calls are being treated as action statements, which is not allowed in the context where they are being used.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Macro Definition: The macro may be defined incorrectly or is being used in a context where action statements are not permitted.
  Context Misuse: The macro might be called in a place where only certain types of statements are allowed, such as within a control structure or a specific ABAP block.
  Syntax Errors: There could be syntax errors in the macro definition or its invocation that lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Macro Definition: Check the definition of the macro to ensure it is correctly defined. Make sure that it does not contain any action statements that are not allowed in the context where it is being called.
  
  
  Check Invocation Context: Ensure that the macro is being called in an appropriate context. For example, if the macro is supposed to generate code that can only be used in certain places (like within a loop or a method), make sure it is being called there.
  
  
  Refactor Code: If the macro is too complex or contains action statements, consider refactoring the code to avoid using macros in that context. You might replace the macro with a method or a function module that can be called without causing this error.
  
  
  Syntax Validation: Use the ABAP editor's syntax check feature to identify any syntax errors in the macro or its usage. This can help pinpoint the exact issue.
