• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDM_MIRROR215 - Function module &1 does not exist in the original system (&2) ?

  The SAP error message FDM_MIRROR215 indicates that a function module referenced in the system does not exist in the original system. This error typically arises during data migration or system replication processes, particularly when using tools like SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) or SAP Data Services.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Function Module: The function module specified in the error message is not available in the original system. This could be due to:
  
  The function module was not created or activated in the original system.
  The function module exists in the target system but not in the source system.
  There may be a version mismatch between the source and target systems.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the function module was recently transported from one system to another, it may not have been transported correctly or completely.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: The system configuration may not be set up correctly, leading to the function module not being recognized.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Function Module Existence:
  
  Go to transaction SE37 (Function Builder) in the original system and check if the function module exists.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it or transport it from another system where it is available.
  
  
  
  Transport the Function Module:
  
  If the function module is missing, you can transport it from the development system to the original system using the transport management system (TMS).
  
  
  
  Check System Versions:
  
  Ensure that both the source and target systems are on compatible versions of SAP. If there are significant version differences, some function modules may not exist in both systems.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings related to the data migration or replication process. Ensure that all necessary components are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
