  SAP Error Message: VH106
  Message Text:
  
  & is not a valid argument. Use method &
  
  Cause
  This error typically occurs when a method in an ABAP program or a function module is called with an invalid or inappropriate argument. The system expects a certain type or format of argument, but the provided argument does not meet these expectations.
  In particular, the message indicates that the argument passed to a method is invalid, and suggests using a specific method instead.
  This error is often encountered in the context of Vehicle Handling (VH) or related modules, but the root cause is a programming or configuration issue where the method call is incorrect.
  
  Explanation
  
  The first & in the message is a placeholder for the invalid argument value.
  The second & is a placeholder for the method name that should be used instead.
  
  For example, the message might appear as:
  
  'ABC' is not a valid argument. Use method GET_VEHICLE instead.
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Method Call:
  
  Review the ABAP code or configuration where the method is called. Verify that the argument passed to the method is valid and of the correct type.
  
  
  Use the Correct Method:
  
  Follow the suggestion in the message to use the recommended method. The system message usually indicates which method should be used instead of the invalid argument.
  
  
  Debugging:  
  
  Use the ABAP debugger to trace the point where the error occurs.
  Check the values of the arguments passed to the method.
  Ensure that the method is called with the correct parameters.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Look up the method mentioned in the message in SAP documentation or the ABAP class/method interface to understand the expected arguments.
