  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W3022 - Internet release of function module &1 has been reset ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W3022Internet release of function module &1 has been reset


    Meaning / Cause

    This warning message indicates that the Internet release (i.e., the remote-enabled or RFC-enabled version) of the specified function module has been reset or deactivated. In other words, the function module was previously released for remote calls (such as via RFC or web services), but this release has been removed or reset, so it is no longer available for remote access.

    This situation can occur if:

    • The function module was initially marked as remote-enabled (with the "Remote-Enabled Module" attribute), but later this setting was changed or removed.
    • The function module was released for Internet (RFC) access but then the release was reset during a transport or system change.
    • There was a system upgrade or patch that reset the release status.
    • The function module is being called remotely, but it is no longer released for remote calls.

    When does this occur?

    • When a remote call (RFC, web service, or other Internet-based call) is made to a function module that is no longer released for remote access.
    • During system checks or consistency checks related to function module releases.
    • When the system detects that the Internet release flag for the function module has been reset.

    Solution / How to fix

    1. Check the function module attributes:

      • Go to transaction SE37 (Function Builder).
      • Enter the function module name (the &1 placeholder in the message will be replaced by the actual function module name).
      • Click on Attributes.
      • Verify if the function module is marked as Remote-Enabled Module (this is required for RFC or Internet release).
    2. Re-release the function module for Internet (RFC) access:

      • If the function module is not remote-enabled, and it needs to be called remotely, set the attribute Remote-Enabled Module.
      • Save and activate the function module.
    3. Check authorization and transport:

      • If the function module was changed in a development system and transported, ensure that the transport included the release of the function module.
      • Sometimes transports reset the release status; re-release the function module in the target system if necessary.
    4. Check for system inconsistencies:

      • Run consistency checks or use transaction SE80 or SE37 to verify the function module status.
      • If the problem persists, check for OSS notes or SAP support for known issues related to your SAP version.

    Additional Information

    • The Internet release of a function module is necessary for remote calls such as RFC, SOAP web services, or other external interfaces.
    • Resetting the release means the function module cannot be called remotely until it is re-released.
    • This is a warning message (W3022), so it may not stop processing but indicates a potential problem with remote calls.
    • Always ensure that only intended function modules are released for remote access for security reasons.

    Summary

    Aspect Details
    Cause The function module's Internet (remote) release has been reset or removed.
    Effect Remote calls to this function module will fail or be blocked.
    Solution Re-release the function module as remote-enabled in SE37 and activate it.
    Check Function module attributes, transports, system consistency, and authorization.
    Message Type Warning (W3022) – indicates a potential issue but not necessarily a stop error.
