  The SAP error message SYCM_APS044 indicates that there is an issue with the version of a function module being called in a Remote Function Call (RFC). The message provides the following details:
  
  &1: The invalid version of the function module that was attempted to be used.
  &2: The expected version of the function module.
  &3: The RFC destination that was used for the call.
  &4: The name of the function module that is being called.
  
  Cause
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  The function module has been updated or changed in the system, and the calling program is trying to use an outdated version.
  There is a mismatch between the versions of the function module in the calling system and the target system (the system where the RFC destination points).
  The RFC destination is incorrectly configured or points to a system that does not have the expected version of the function module.
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Function Module Version:
  
  Verify the version of the function module in both the calling and target systems. You can do this by navigating to the function module in transaction SE37 or SE80 and checking the version history.
  
  
  
  Update the Calling Program:
  
  If the calling program is using an outdated version of the function module, update it to use the correct version. This may involve modifying the code to ensure it is compatible with the expected version.
  
  
  
  Check RFC Destination:
  
  Ensure that the RFC destination is correctly configured and points to the correct system. You can check this in transaction SM59. Make sure that the target system has the expected version of the function module.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes:
  
  If the function module was recently changed, ensure that the changes have been transported to the target system. If not, transport the changes to the target system.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review any relevant documentation or release notes for the function module to understand any changes that may have been made in newer versions.
