• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE072 - Assign a new function group to view "&" ?

  The SAP error message KE072, which states "Assign a new function group to view '&'", typically occurs in the context of SAP Controlling (CO) when there is an issue with a view that is not properly assigned to a function group. This can happen during the configuration of controlling areas, cost centers, or other related objects.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Function Group Assignment: The view in question is not assigned to a valid function group. This can happen if the view was created or modified incorrectly.
  Transport Issues: If the view was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the function group assignment may not have been included in the transport.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or modifications in the system, they may not have been properly configured.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check View Assignment:
  
  Go to the transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary).
  Enter the name of the view that is causing the error.
  Check the properties of the view to see if it is assigned to a function group. If not, you will need to assign it to a valid function group.
  
  
  
  Assign a Function Group:
  
  If the view is not assigned to a function group, you can assign it by editing the view in SE11 and specifying a valid function group.
  Make sure to save and activate the changes.
  
  
  
  Transport Request:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport request to ensure that all necessary objects, including function groups, were included.
  If needed, re-transport the missing objects.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code:
  
  If there are custom developments, review the code to ensure that it is correctly referencing the function group and that there are no errors in the custom logic.
