  The SAP error message SEPMH_DG007, which states "Call of method &1 not allowed in the context of class &2," typically indicates that there is an attempt to call a method that is not permitted in the current context of the specified class. This can occur due to various reasons, such as:
  Causes:
  
  
  Method Visibility: The method being called may not be public or may not be accessible in the context where it is being invoked. For example, if the method is private or protected and is being called from outside its allowed scope.
  
  
  Incorrect Context: The method may be designed to be called only in specific contexts or states of the class. If the class instance is not in the correct state, the method call may be disallowed.
  
  
  Inheritance Issues: If the method is part of a superclass and is being called from a subclass, there may be restrictions based on the visibility or the context of the method in the superclass.
  
  
  Static vs. Instance Methods: If you are trying to call an instance method statically or vice versa, this can lead to this error.
  
  
  Implementation Errors: There may be a logical error in the code where the method is being called incorrectly.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Method Access: Verify the visibility of the method you are trying to call. Ensure that it is accessible from the context you are calling it from.
  
  
  Review Class Context: Ensure that the class instance is in the correct state and context to allow the method call. You may need to check the lifecycle of the object.
  
  
  Correct Inheritance Usage: If the method is inherited, ensure that you are calling it correctly according to the rules of inheritance in ABAP.
  
  
  Static vs. Instance Calls: Make sure you are calling the method in the correct manner (static or instance) based on how it is defined.
  
  
  Debugging: Use debugging tools to step through the code and identify the exact point of failure. This can help you understand why the method call is not allowed.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Check the SAP documentation for the specific class and method to understand any restrictions or requirements for calling the method.
