    The SAP error message CM_REPORT_TEMPLATE120 indicates that there is an issue with a user exit in a report template. Specifically, it suggests that a repeating group defined in the report template is trying to reference a user exit that does not exist or is not properly defined in the system.

    Cause:

    1. Missing User Exit: The user exit specified in the error message does not exist in the system. This could be due to a missing implementation or a typo in the configuration.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The report template may be incorrectly configured, leading to references to non-existent user exits.
    3. Transport Issues: If the report template or user exit was transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly, leading to missing components.

    2. Correct Configuration: Review the configuration of the report template to ensure that all references to user exits are correct and that they point to valid exits.
    3. Implement Missing User Exit: If the user exit does not exist, you may need to implement it. This could involve creating a new user exit or modifying an existing one to meet the requirements of the report template.
    4. Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included and transported correctly.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or notes from SAP regarding the specific report template and user exits to ensure compliance with best practices.
