• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/BA_SAM072 - BAdI implementation is missing for generating values for object type &1 ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/BA_SAM072 indicates that a Business Add-In (BAdI) implementation is missing for generating values for a specific object type. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) when the system is trying to execute a function that relies on a BAdI implementation that has not been defined.
  Cause:
  
  Missing BAdI Implementation: The primary cause of this error is that the required BAdI implementation for the specified object type is not available in the system. This can happen if the implementation was never created or if it was deleted or deactivated.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue where the system is not correctly set up to recognize the BAdI implementation.
  Transport Issues: If the BAdI implementation was transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that caused it to not be available in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check for BAdI Implementation:
  
  Go to transaction SE18 (BAdI Definition) and check if the BAdI related to the object type in question exists.
  If it exists, go to transaction SE19 (BAdI Implementation) to see if there are any active implementations for it.
  
  
  
  Create or Activate BAdI Implementation:
  
  If no implementation exists, you may need to create one. This can be done in transaction SE19 by creating a new implementation for the relevant BAdI.
  If an implementation exists but is inactive, activate it.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Check the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific BAdI to understand its purpose and how it should be implemented.
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: If the BAdI implementation was supposed to be transported from another system, check the transport requests to ensure that they were successfully imported.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is a critical issue affecting business processes.
