  The SAP error message /PF1/PE_PP_BASIS015 Function module &1 does not exist in an active status indicates that the function module referenced by &1 is either not activated or does not exist in the system. This can occur for various reasons, such as transport issues, missing development objects, or inconsistencies in the system.
  Causes:
  
  Function Module Not Activated: The function module may not have been activated after being created or modified.
  Transport Issues: If the function module was transported from another system, it may not have been properly imported or activated in the target system.
  Missing Development Objects: The function module may depend on other objects that are missing or inactive.
  Namespace Issues: If the function module is in a custom namespace, it may not be available in the current environment.
  System Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the system that prevent the function module from being recognized.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Function Module Status:
  
  Go to transaction SE37 (Function Builder) and enter the name of the function module to check if it exists and its status.
  If it exists but is not active, activate it.
