    Causes:

    1. Missing Function Module: The function module specified in the error message does not exist in the system. This could be due to a missing transport or an incomplete installation of a component.
    2. Incorrect Function Module Name: There may be a typo or an incorrect name in the code that is trying to call the function module.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the function module, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
