• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRMA142 - Function module &1 is not suitable for mass processing ?

  SAP Error Message:
  WRMA142 - Function module &1 is not suitable for mass processing
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a function module that is not designed or intended for mass processing is called in a context where mass processing is expected. In SAP, certain function modules are specifically developed to handle mass data or batch operations efficiently. If a function module meant for single-record processing is used in a mass processing scenario, the system raises this error to prevent incorrect or inefficient processing.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The placeholder &1 in the message is replaced by the name of the function module that caused the error.
  Mass processing typically involves processing multiple records in one run (e.g., mass changes, mass updates).
  Function modules suitable for mass processing usually have specific parameters and internal logic to handle multiple records.
  Using a non-mass-enabled function module in such a scenario can lead to performance issues or inconsistent data.
