• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SC012 - Function module & uses dynamic calls ?

  The SAP error message SC012 indicates that a function module is being called dynamically, which can lead to issues if the function module is not properly defined or if there are problems with the parameters being passed. This error typically arises in the context of ABAP programming when using dynamic calls (e.g., using CALL FUNCTION with a variable function name).
  Cause of SC012 Error
  
  Dynamic Function Call: The error occurs when a function module is called dynamically, and the system cannot find the specified function module or it is not accessible.
  Incorrect Function Name: The function name being passed may be incorrect or misspelled.
  Missing Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to execute the function module.
  Function Module Not Active: The function module may not be active or may have been deleted or not properly transported to the system.
  Parameter Mismatch: The parameters being passed to the function module may not match the expected parameters in terms of type or number.
  
  Solutions
  
  
  Check Function Module Name: Verify that the function module name being passed is correct and exists in the system. You can do this by checking in transaction SE37 (Function Builder).
  
  
  Check Authorization: Ensure that the user executing the function has the necessary authorizations to call the function module. You can check this in transaction SU53 after the error occurs.
  
  
  Activate Function Module: If the function module is not active, activate it in transaction SE37.
  
  
  Parameter Validation: Ensure that the parameters being passed to the function module are correct in terms of type and number. You can check the expected parameters in the function module definition.
  
  
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and see the exact function name and parameters being passed at runtime. This can help identify any issues with the dynamic call.
  
  
  Check Transport Requests: If the function module was recently transported, ensure that the transport was successful and that all dependencies are also transported.
  
  
  Related Information
  
  Dynamic Calls in ABAP: Dynamic calls can be useful but also risky if not handled properly. Always ensure that the function module exists and is accessible.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your ABAP code to gracefully manage situations where a function module cannot be called.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for best practices on using dynamic calls and handling function modules.
