PG458 - Details

• The SAP error message PG458 indicates that there is an issue with the implementation of a Business Add-In (BAdI) in your SAP system. Specifically, it suggests that the coding for the BAdI implementation must be stored in the BAdI itself, rather than in the main program or another location.
