  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MC480 - Function module MC_CREATE/UPDATE/DELETE_& not generated -> long text ?

    The SAP error message MC480 indicates that a function module related to the Material Management (MM) or Logistics Information System (LIS) has not been generated. This typically occurs when there are issues with the data dictionary or when the necessary function modules for creating, updating, or deleting records in the LIS are not available.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Function Module: The function module MC_CREATE, MC_UPDATE, or MC_DELETE for a specific InfoObject has not been generated.
    2. Transport Issues: If the system has recently undergone a transport, the function modules may not have been included or properly transported.
    3. Custom Development: If there are custom developments or modifications, they may not have been properly implemented or activated.
