  The SAP error message IFME_LOG002 with the description "Message class is not defined (Type: &1, Number: &2)" typically indicates that the system is trying to reference a message that does not exist in the specified message class. This can occur in various scenarios, such as during the execution of a program, transaction, or report that attempts to display a message that has not been defined in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Message Class: The message class that is being referenced does not exist in the system.
  Incorrect Message Number: The message number being referenced is not defined within the specified message class.
  Transport Issues: If the message class was recently transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly or completely.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Message Class:
  
  Use transaction SE91 to check if the message class exists. Enter the message class name and see if it is defined.
  If it does not exist, you may need to create it or correct the reference in the code.
