• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EMDUS102 - Result parameter &1 not used ?

  The SAP error message EMDUS102, which states "Result parameter &1 not used," typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming, particularly when dealing with function modules or methods that have output parameters that are not being utilized in the calling program.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when:
  
  A function module or method is defined with output parameters (result parameters), but the calling program does not use or assign these parameters.
  This can happen if the developer forgets to handle the output parameters or if the parameters are not needed for the specific logic being implemented.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the EMDUS102 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Function Module/Method Definition:
  
  Review the definition of the function module or method to identify the output parameters that are defined.
  
  
  
  Utilize the Output Parameters:
  
  Ensure that the calling program captures and uses the output parameters. This can be done by assigning the output parameters to variables in the calling program.
  
  Example:
  DATA: lv_result TYPE your_type.
  CALL FUNCTION 'YOUR_FUNCTION_MODULE'
    EXPORTING
      input_param = value
    IMPORTING
      result_param = lv_result.  " Ensure this is used
  
  
  Remove Unused Parameters:
  
  If the output parameters are genuinely not needed, consider modifying the function module or method to remove the unused output parameters. This should be done with caution, as it may affect other parts of the program that rely on those parameters.
  
  
  
  Suppress the Warning:
  
  If you are certain that the output parameters are not needed and cannot be removed, you can suppress the warning in the ABAP editor by using the #EC NOTEXT directive, but this is generally not recommended as it can lead to maintenance issues later.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Development: Understanding how to properly handle function modules and methods in ABAP is crucial. Familiarize yourself with the concepts of importing and exporting parameters.
  Code Review: Regularly review your code for unused parameters and clean up any unnecessary definitions to maintain code quality.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for best practices in ABAP programming and handling function modules.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the EMDUS102 error and ensure that your ABAP code is functioning as intended.
