• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FUNC_ADT012 - Missing statement ENDFUNCTION ?

  The SAP error message FUNC_ADT012 Missing statement ENDFUNCTION typically occurs in ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) when the ABAP code is missing the ENDFUNCTION statement that is required to properly close a function module or function method. This error is often encountered during the development or modification of function modules in the ABAP Workbench or when using the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) in Eclipse.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the function module or method definition is incomplete. Specifically, it indicates that the ENDFUNCTION statement, which marks the end of a function module, is missing. This can happen due to:
  
  Incomplete Code: The developer may have forgotten to add the ENDFUNCTION statement after the function's implementation.
  Syntax Errors: There may be syntax errors in the code that prevent the parser from recognizing the end of the function.
  Copy-Paste Errors: If code was copied from another source, the ENDFUNCTION statement might have been inadvertently omitted.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FUNC_ADT012 Missing statement ENDFUNCTION error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Function Module: Open the function module in the ABAP Workbench or ADT and ensure that the ENDFUNCTION statement is present at the end of the function's implementation.
  Example:
  FUNCTION my_function.
    " Function implementation goes here
  ENDFUNCTION.
  
  
  Review Syntax: Look for any syntax errors in the code that might be causing the parser to misinterpret the structure of the function. Correct any issues you find.
  
  
  Recompile the Code: After adding the missing ENDFUNCTION statement or fixing any syntax errors, save and activate the function module. This should resolve the error.
  
  
  Check for Nested Functions: If you are working with nested function modules or methods, ensure that each function is properly closed with its corresponding ENDFUNCTION or ENDMETHOD.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Syntax: Familiarize yourself with the basic syntax rules of ABAP, especially regarding function modules and methods.
  ABAP Development Tools: If you are using ADT in Eclipse, make sure you are familiar with its features, such as syntax highlighting and error checking, which can help identify such issues early.
  Debugging: If the error persists, consider using the ABAP debugger to step through the code and identify where the function definition might be going wrong.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the FUNC_ADT012 Missing statement ENDFUNCTION error and ensure that your ABAP code is correctly structured.
