• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDG_GN_RFC012 - Frame for function &1 not generated - system error ?

  The SAP error message MDG_GN_RFC012 indicates that there is an issue with the generation of a function frame for a specific function module in the Master Data Governance (MDG) context. This error typically arises due to issues in the configuration or setup of the RFC (Remote Function Call) connections or the function modules themselves.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Function Module: The function module referenced in the error message may not exist or may not be activated in the system.
  Transport Issues: If the function module was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or activated.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the function may not have the necessary authorizations to access the function module.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the system configuration, such as incorrect settings in the RFC destination or the MDG configuration.
  System Errors: There could be underlying system errors or inconsistencies in the SAP environment.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Function Module: Verify that the function module referenced in the error message exists and is active. You can do this by using transaction code SE37 or SE80.
  Transport Check: If the function module was recently transported, ensure that it has been properly imported and activated. Check the transport logs for any errors.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to execute the function module. You can check this using transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
  RFC Destination: Check the RFC destination settings in transaction SM59. Ensure that the destination is correctly configured and that the connection is working.
  System Logs: Review the system logs (transaction SM21) and the application logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context.
  Re-Generate Function Module: If the function module is corrupted, you may need to re-generate it. This can sometimes be done by reactivating the function module in SE37.
