  The SAP error message DRF_OUTBOUND087 indicates that there is a missing outbound implementation for the Data Replication Framework (DRF). This error typically occurs when you are trying to set up or execute an outbound data replication process, but the system cannot find a defined outbound implementation for the specified object.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Outbound Implementation: The most common cause is that there is no outbound implementation defined for the specific object type you are trying to replicate.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for the outbound implementation may not be set up correctly or may be incomplete.
  Object Type Not Supported: The object type you are trying to replicate may not have an outbound implementation available in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Outbound Implementations:
  
  Go to the transaction code DRFOUT (or navigate through the SAP menu: Logistics > Master Data > Data Replication Framework > Outbound Implementation).
  Check if there is an outbound implementation defined for the object type you are working with.
  
  
  
  Create or Modify Outbound Implementation:
  
  If there is no outbound implementation, you will need to create one. Click on the "New Entries" button to define a new outbound implementation.
