What causes this issue?

You are transporting a method definition to another system. Note that
you are only transporting the definition of the method to be executed,
and not the method itself. The methods beginning with "CCMS" that are
defined by SAP will also exist in other systems of the same release.
This message therefore only applies to programs that customers have
defined themselves.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Transport the program to the destination system. You do not need to
transport a method defined by SAP into other systems.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RA287 - Caution: The executed call & must be in the target system ?

  The SAP error message RA287, which states "Caution: The executed call & must be in the target system," typically occurs in the context of remote function calls (RFC) or when executing transactions that involve communication between different SAP systems or clients. This message indicates that the system is trying to execute a function or transaction that is not valid in the current context or target system.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Target System: The function or transaction being called is not available or not valid in the target system. This can happen if the RFC destination is incorrectly configured or if the function module is not implemented in the target system.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the call may not have the necessary authorizations in the target system.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the RFC destination or the connection settings between the systems.
  Data Consistency: The data being processed may not be consistent or valid for the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check RFC Destination: Verify that the RFC destination is correctly configured and points to the correct target system. You can do this using transaction SM59.
  Function Module Availability: Ensure that the function module or transaction being called is available and correctly implemented in the target system. You can check this using transaction SE37 for function modules or SE93 for transactions.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations in the target system to execute the function or transaction. You can check this using transaction SU53 after the error occurs.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the connection between the systems, including network settings, firewall rules, and any relevant middleware configurations.
  Data Validation: Ensure that the data being sent to the target system is valid and meets the requirements of the target system.
