  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP407 - Enter a function module ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WXP407 - Enter a function module


    Cause:

    This warning message appears in SAP when a function module name is expected but has not been entered. Typically, this happens in contexts where you need to specify a function module to be called, for example, in workflow steps, user exits, or custom enhancements where the system requires a function module name to proceed.


    When does it occur?

    • When defining or configuring a workflow step that requires a function module.
    • When setting up a user exit or BAdI that requires a function module input.
    • When a program or transaction expects a function module name as input but the field is left blank.

    Solution:

    • Enter a valid function module name in the input field where the system expects it.
    • Ensure the function module exists and is active in the system (use transaction SE37 to check).
    • If you are unsure which function module to enter, consult the relevant documentation or your functional consultant.
    • If this is part of a custom development, verify with the developer or check the enhancement documentation for the correct function module to use.

    Additional Information:

    • Function modules are reusable procedures in SAP that encapsulate specific functionality.
    • The message WXP407 is a warning, so it may allow you to continue but it is recommended to provide the required function module to avoid runtime errors.
    • You can look up the message text and details in transaction SE91 by entering message class WXP and message number 407.
    • If you encounter this message during workflow configuration, ensure that the workflow step is properly defined with the correct function module to execute.
