  The SAP error message you are encountering, specifically "GLE_PER_ECS_ACP_VIM051 BRF function for derivation function '&1' was deleted successfully," typically relates to the Business Rule Framework (BRF) in SAP. This message indicates that a specific derivation function has been deleted, which may have implications for the processes or applications that rely on that function.
  Cause:
  
  
  Deletion of BRF Function: The primary cause of this error is that a BRF function, which is used for deriving values or making decisions based on certain conditions, has been deleted. This could happen due to:
  
  Manual deletion by a user with the necessary permissions.
  A transport request that removed the function from the system.
  A system upgrade or migration that inadvertently removed the function.
  
  
  
  Dependency Issues: If other processes or applications depend on the deleted function, they may fail to execute correctly, leading to errors.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Restore the Deleted Function:
  
  If the function was deleted accidentally, you can restore it from a transport request if it was part of a transport.
  Check the system logs or change logs to see if you can identify when and why the function was deleted.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Function:
  
  If restoration is not possible, you may need to recreate the BRF function manually. Ensure that you replicate the logic and conditions that were present in the original function.
  
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Review any processes or applications that rely on the deleted function. You may need to update them to either use a new function or handle the absence of the deleted function gracefully.

  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to BRF and the specific derivation function to understand its purpose and how it was used in your system.
