  Cause:
  
  Function Module Released: The function module has been released and is currently in use, which means it cannot be modified or deleted without first undoing the release.
  Transport Request Issues: If the function module is part of a transport request that has already been released, you may encounter this message when trying to make changes.

  Check Transport Requests: Ensure that the transport requests related to the function module are properly managed. If the function module is part of a transport that has been released, you may need to create a new transport request for your changes.
  Review Dependencies: Check if there are any dependencies or references to the function module that might be preventing you from making changes. Ensure that no other objects are currently using it in a way that would block modifications.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific function module for any additional context or requirements for making changes.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to modify or undo the release of the function module.
