• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCF/CL_MSGS_AMON026 - Remote call of function module is not allowed ?

  The SAP error message /SCF/CL_MSGS_AMON026 indicates that a remote call to a function module is not allowed. This typically occurs in scenarios where a function module is being called in a context that does not permit remote execution, such as in certain background jobs, RFC calls, or when the function module is not designed to be called remotely.
  Causes:
  
  Function Module Restrictions: The function module you are trying to call may have been defined with the attribute "Not Remote-Enabled". This means it is intended to be executed only in the local context of the application server.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in your SAP system that restrict remote calls for certain function modules.
  Authorization Issues: The user or system trying to execute the remote call may not have the necessary authorizations to perform that action.
  Network Issues: If there are network issues or misconfigurations in the RFC destination, it may lead to this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Function Module Attributes: 
  
  Go to transaction SE37 (Function Module) and check the attributes of the function module you are trying to call. Ensure that it is marked as "Remote-Enabled".
