• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PF1/MSG_PO_CH_BAPI035 - BAPI was executed in test mode; SLA was not created in the SLA database ?

  The SAP error message /PF1/MSG_PO_CH_BAPI035 indicates that a BAPI (Business Application Programming Interface) was executed in test mode, which means that no actual changes were made to the database, including the creation of a Service Level Agreement (SLA) in the SLA database.
  Cause:
  
  Test Mode Execution: The BAPI was called with a parameter that indicates it should run in test mode. In this mode, the system simulates the execution of the BAPI without making any changes to the database.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings that default the BAPI to run in test mode.
  Development or Testing Environment: The BAPI might be executed in a development or testing environment where changes to the database are not allowed or are restricted.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Execution Mode: Ensure that the BAPI is being called in the correct mode. If you want to create an SLA, make sure to set the appropriate parameter to indicate that the BAPI should run in update mode (not test mode).
  Review BAPI Parameters: Look at the parameters being passed to the BAPI. There should be a parameter that specifies whether the execution is in test mode or not. Change this parameter to allow for actual database updates.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific BAPI you are using to understand the parameters and their implications.
  Testing Environment: If you are in a testing environment and want to test the actual creation of SLAs, consider switching to a development or production environment where changes can be made.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your code to catch this specific error and provide feedback to the user or log it for further analysis.
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAPI Documentation: Check the SAP Help Portal or the specific BAPI documentation for details on how to use the BAPI correctly.
  SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes related to SLA management and BAPI execution, such as BAPI or SE37 for function module testing.
  Debugging: If you have access, use the debugger to step through the BAPI execution to see where the test mode is being set.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully create an SLA in the database.
