COM_PME_PARSER057 - Details

• The SAP error message COM_PME_PARSER057 with the description "Reference to object required: &1 found" typically indicates that there is an issue with the way an object is being referenced in your code or configuration. This error often arises in the context of ABAP programming or when working with Business Objects in SAP.
  
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Object Reference: The error usually occurs when the code is trying to access an object that is not properly instantiated or is of an unexpected type.
  Null or Uninitialized Object: The object being referenced may not have been initialized, leading to a null reference.
  Type Mismatch: The object type expected by the code does not match the actual type of the object being referenced.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Object Initialization: Ensure that the object you are trying to reference is properly initialized before it is used. If it is a class instance, make sure you have created an instance of the class.
