  The SAP error message SEEF_BADI009, which states "Filter &1 of the type &2 does not exist," typically occurs when you are trying to access a Business Add-In (BAdI) filter that is not defined or does not exist in the system. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when you are trying to implement or activate a BAdI, or when you are executing a transaction that relies on a specific BAdI filter.
  Cause:
  
  Non-existent Filter: The filter you are trying to use has not been created or does not exist in the system.
  Incorrect Filter Name: There may be a typo or incorrect filter name specified in the BAdI implementation or configuration.
  Missing Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the filter.
  Transport Issues: If the BAdI or its filters were transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Filter Existence:
  
  Go to the BAdI definition in transaction SE18 or SE19 and check if the filter you are trying to use is listed.
  If it is not listed, you may need to create it.
  
  
  
  Create or Modify Filter:
  
  If the filter does not exist, you can create it by going to the BAdI definition and adding the required filter.
  Ensure that the filter name and type are correctly specified.
  
  
  
  Verify Implementation:

  Authorization Check:

  Transport Check:
  
  If the BAdI was transported from another system, check the transport logs for any errors.
  Ensure that all necessary objects related to the BAdI and its filters were included in the transport.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific BAdI for any additional configuration steps or requirements.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  BAdI Definition: You can find the BAdI definition in transaction SE18, where you can view the filters and their configurations.

  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to the specific BAdI you are working with.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the code to identify where the filter is being called and why it is not found.
