• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABB_PROC011 - Only possible to call up method S_GET_CONTEXT after S_GET_INSTANCE ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ABB_PROC011 Only possible to call up method S_GET_CONTEXT after S_GET_INSTANCE typically indicates that there is an issue with the sequence of method calls in an ABAP program or function module. This error suggests that the method S_GET_CONTEXT is being called without first successfully calling the method S_GET_INSTANCE.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Method Call Sequence: The error arises when the method S_GET_CONTEXT is invoked before S_GET_INSTANCE. In object-oriented programming, certain methods depend on the successful execution of previous methods to establish the necessary context or instance.
  Instance Not Created: If the instance of the class has not been created or initialized properly, subsequent method calls that rely on that instance will fail.
  Logic Errors: There may be a logical error in the code where the flow of execution does not follow the required sequence.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Method Call Order: Review the code to ensure that S_GET_INSTANCE is called before S_GET_CONTEXT. The instance must be created and initialized before you can retrieve its context.
  Example:
  DATA: lo_instance TYPE REF TO your_class.
  CREATE OBJECT lo_instance.
  lo_instance->S_GET_INSTANCE( ).
  lo_instance->S_GET_CONTEXT( ).
  
  
  Error Handling: Implement error handling to check if the instance was created successfully before calling the next method. This can help prevent the error from occurring.
  Example:
  IF lo_instance IS NOT INITIAL.
      lo_instance->S_GET_CONTEXT( ).
  ELSE.
      " Handle the error case
  ENDIF.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and verify that the methods are being called in the correct order. Check the state of the instance before calling S_GET_CONTEXT.
  
  
  Documentation Review: Consult the documentation for the class or methods being used to ensure that you are following the intended usage patterns.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Object-Oriented Programming: Understanding the principles of object-oriented programming in ABAP can help in managing instances and method calls effectively.
  SAP Notes and Community: Check SAP Notes or the SAP Community for any known issues or additional guidance related to this error message.
  Code Review: If you are working in a team, consider having a peer review your code to catch any logical errors or misordered method calls.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that your method calls are executed in the correct sequence.
