    2. Form Deleted: The form may have been deleted or is not available in the current client.
    3. Client-Specific Data: SAPscript forms are client-specific, meaning they need to be created or transported to each client where they are needed.
    4. Transport Issues: If the form was supposed to be transported from another client, the transport might not have been executed successfully.

    Solution:

    1. Check Form Existence:

      • Go to transaction code SE71 (SAPscript form maintenance) and check if the form exists in the specified client.
      • If it does not exist, you may need to create it or transport it from another client.
