This issue typically arises when custom logic and customizing settings are transported together.

In such cases:

• Custom Logic is transported first, followed by

• Customizing settings.

If the custom logic no longer exists in the system, the system will detect this inconsistency and throw an error.

Example:

A custom routine for billing data transfer references a BAdI Implementation that no longer exists. This routine is part of the customizing transport the customer wants to release. Since the referenced custom logic (BAdI Implementation) is missing, the system triggers an error.

Resolution

Before proceeding, consider why the BAdI implementation was deleted, but the assignment within the copy control configuration remains.

You have two options:

1. If the BAdI was deleted by mistake:
   Recreate the BAdI Implementation in the system before continuing.

2. If the BAdI is no longer needed:

   • Remove the routine assignment from the copy control configuration.

   • If deletion of the routine is not possible directly, create a dummy BAdI Implementation with the required filter value (even if it's empty).

   • This dummy BAdI doesn’t need to be used in the productive system, it's only needed to remove the assignment cleanly.

   • After removing the assignment, release the BAdI Implementation transport first.

   • Then, release the customizing transport.
