• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAFTN_AO007 - Method &1 is not redefined in Class &2 ?

  The SAP error message SAFTN_AO007 indicates that a method (denoted as &1) is not redefined in a specific class (denoted as &2). This typically occurs in the context of object-oriented programming in ABAP when a subclass is expected to override a method from its superclass, but it has not done so.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Method Redefinition: The subclass is expected to implement or redefine a method that is declared in its superclass, but it has not been done.
  Incorrect Class Hierarchy: The class hierarchy may not be set up correctly, leading to the subclass not inheriting the expected methods.
  Typographical Errors: There may be a typo in the method name or class name, causing the system to not recognize the method.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Method Declaration: Verify that the method in the superclass is declared as REDEFINITION or OVERRIDE and that it is intended to be redefined in the subclass.
  Implement the Method: If the method is indeed supposed to be redefined in the subclass, implement the method in the subclass with the same signature as in the superclass.
  Review Class Hierarchy: Ensure that the subclass is correctly inheriting from the superclass. Check the class definition and inheritance structure.
  Check for Typos: Double-check the method name and class name for any typographical errors that might prevent the method from being recognized.
  Use the Class Builder: Utilize the Class Builder (transaction SE24) to navigate to the class and check the method definitions and inheritance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  ABAP Object-Oriented Programming: Understanding the principles of inheritance and method overriding in ABAP is crucial for resolving this error.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for more details on class definitions and method redefinitions.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider using debugging tools to trace the execution and identify where the method call fails.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SAFTN_AO007 error and ensure that your class methods are correctly defined and redefined as needed.
