• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QJ170 - *** RFC_STUB_EDIT *** ?

  The SAP error message QJ170 with the description " RFC_STUB_EDIT " typically indicates an issue related to Remote Function Call (RFC) communication in SAP systems. This error can occur in various contexts, often when there is a problem with the configuration or execution of RFC-enabled function modules.
  Possible Causes:
  
  RFC Destination Issues: The RFC destination may not be correctly configured or may be pointing to an incorrect or inactive system.
  Authorization Problems: The user executing the RFC call may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the action.
  Network Issues: There may be network connectivity problems between the systems involved in the RFC call.
  Function Module Issues: The function module being called may not exist, may be inactive, or may have been changed in a way that is incompatible with the calling program.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the SAP system itself, such as missing or incorrect settings in the RFC configuration.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check RFC Destination:
  
  Go to transaction SM59 and verify the configuration of the RFC destination. Ensure that it is correctly set up and that the target system is reachable.
  Test the connection from SM59 to ensure it is working properly.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations:

  Function Module Verification:

  If the function module has been modified, ensure that the changes are compatible with the calling program.
  
  
  
  System Configuration:
  
  Review the system configuration settings related to RFC and ensure that they are correctly set up. This may involve checking parameters in transaction RZ10 or other relevant configuration transactions.
