• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SYCM_APS013 - Function module &1 does not exist in target system. Implement SAP note &2 ?

  The SAP error message SYCM_APS013 indicates that a function module specified in your system does not exist in the target system. This typically occurs during system upgrades, transports, or when trying to execute a program that relies on a function module that has not been properly imported or activated in the target environment.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Function Module: The function module referenced in the error message is not available in the target system. This could be due to:
  
  The function module not being included in the transport request.
  The function module being deleted or not activated in the target system.
  A version mismatch between the source and target systems.
  
  
  
  SAP Note Not Implemented: The error message suggests implementing a specific SAP note, which may contain corrections or updates related to the function module.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Function Module:
  
  Verify if the function module exists in the target system by using transaction code SE37 (Function Builder).
  If it does not exist, check if it is part of a transport request that has not been imported.
  
  
  
  Implement the SAP Note:
  
  Use transaction code SNOTE to implement the SAP note referenced in the error message. This note may provide the necessary corrections or updates to ensure the function module is available.
  Follow the instructions in the note carefully, as it may require specific steps or prerequisites.
  
  
  
  Transport Request:
  
  If the function module is part of a transport request, ensure that the transport has been successfully imported into the target system.
  If it has not been imported, you may need to transport it from the source system.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Sometimes, function modules depend on other objects (like tables, data elements, etc.). Ensure that all dependencies are also present in the target system.
  
  
  
  System Consistency:
  
  Ensure that both the source and target systems are on compatible versions and have the same support packages applied. Mismatches can lead to missing objects.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SE37: Function Builder to check for the existence of the function module.
  SNOTE: To implement SAP notes.
  SE01: Transport Organizer to manage transport requests.
  
  
  
  SAP Support: If the issue persists after following the above steps, consider reaching out to SAP Support for further assistance. They can provide guidance based on the specific context of your systems.
  
  
  Documentation: Always refer to the official SAP documentation for detailed instructions on handling transport issues and implementing notes.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SYCM_APS013 error and ensure that the necessary function modules are available in your target system.
