    WSTRN201 Error during call of function / method &1


    Meaning / Cause

    This error message indicates that an error occurred during the call of a function module or method in SAP. The placeholder &1 is replaced by the name of the function module or method that caused the error.

    Common causes include:

    • The called function module or method does not exist or is not active.
    • Authorization issues preventing the execution of the function/method.
    • Incorrect parameters passed to the function/method.
    • Runtime errors inside the function module or method (e.g., division by zero, database errors).
    • Communication or interface problems if the function module is remote (RFC).
    • Missing or inconsistent data required by the function/method.

    Solution / Troubleshooting Steps

    1. Check the exact function module or method name
      Identify the function module or method name from the error message (replaces &1).

    2. Check the function module/method existence and activation

      • Use transaction SE37 (Function Builder) to check if the function module exists and is active.
      • For methods, check the class in SE24 and verify the method.
    3. Check the parameters passed

      • Review the calling program or transaction to ensure the parameters passed to the function/method are correct and complete.
      • Debug the program to see the exact call and parameter values.
    4. Check authorizations

      • Verify if the user has the necessary authorizations to execute the function module or method.
    5. Debug the function module/method

      • Set breakpoints in the function module or method and reproduce the error to find the exact cause.
      • Look for runtime errors or exceptions inside the function/method.
    6. Check system logs and dumps

      • Use transaction ST22 to check for short dumps related to the error.
      • Use transaction SM21 to check system logs for related errors.
    7. Check RFC connections (if applicable)

      • If the function module is called remotely, verify the RFC destination and connection status in SM59.
    8. Check OSS Notes and SAP Support

      • Search SAP OSS Notes for the function module or method name and error message for known issues and fixes.
