• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ENHANCEMENT083 - Function & not active in Function Builder ?

  The SAP error message ENHANCEMENT083 indicates that a specific function (in this case, a function module or method) is not active in the Function Builder. This typically occurs when you are trying to use or call a function that has been defined but not activated in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Function Not Activated: The function module or method you are trying to use has been created but not activated. In SAP, any changes made to function modules or methods need to be activated before they can be used.
  Transport Issues: If the function was transported from another system, it might not have been activated in the target system.
  Development Environment: If you are working in a development environment, the function might be in a state of being edited and not yet activated.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the Function:
  
  Go to the Function Builder (transaction code SE37 for function modules or SE80 for methods).
  Enter the name of the function module or method that is causing the error.
  Check if the function is in an inactive state. If it is, activate it by clicking on the "Activate" button (or using the menu option).
  
  
  
  Check Transport Requests:
  
  If the function was transported, ensure that the transport request has been released and imported correctly into the target system.
  You can check the transport logs for any errors during the import process.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that any dependent objects (like other function modules, classes, or interfaces) are also active. Sometimes, a function may depend on other objects that need to be activated first.
  
  
  
  Review Development Guidelines:
  
  If you are in a development environment, ensure that you follow the proper guidelines for activating objects. Sometimes, there may be specific processes in place for activating objects in a controlled manner.
