    The SAP error message ECM_FACADE002 indicates that a method in the SAP system is being called, but one of its import parameters has not been assigned a value. This typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming or when using Business Application Programming Interfaces (BAPIs) or function modules.

    Cause:

        EXPORTING
          param_name = lv_param.
    3. Debugging: Use the debugger to step through the code and check the values of the parameters just before the method call. This will help identify which parameter is not being set.
    4. Review Documentation: Check the documentation for the method to understand the required parameters and their expected values.
