Message number: 131
Message text: FORM routine & could not be found in program &
You have entered a FORM routine which has not been specified in the
program.
In this case, the system only gives a warning message which you should
observe. If you enter an incorrect program or FORM routine here, no
parameters or text variables will be replaced. In addition, you will
not be able to alter the change indicator or run a program to determine
the output issue date.
Program RSNAST00 (RSNASTOSO) ignores the warning message generated by
the incorrect entry so that processing can continue and the posting can
be made.
Please correct your entries. Check whether the problem is due to a
typing error.
Maintain valid FORM routines and programs that facilitate the parameter
replacement functions.

- FORM routine & could not be found in program & ?The SAP error message:
VN131 FORM routine & could not be found in program &
Explanation:
Cause:
This error occurs when the SAP system tries to call a FORM routine (a subroutine in ABAP) that does not exist in the specified program. The placeholders &
are replaced by the actual FORM routine name and program name at runtime. Essentially, the program is trying to execute a FORM routine that is either misspelled, deleted, or never created.
Typical Scenario:
This often happens in user exits, BADIs, or custom enhancements where a FORM routine is called but the routine is missing. It can also occur if a standard SAP program is modified or if a transport is incomplete.
Check the FORM routine name and program name:
Look at the error message details to identify which FORM routine and program are involved.
Verify the FORM routine exists:
Correct the call to the FORM routine:
Check for incomplete transports:
Check custom enhancements or user exits:
Activate the program:
