The SAP error message
/AIF/CUSTOM_FUNCTION039
indicates that a custom function in the Application Interface Framework (AIF) has been deleted. This error typically arises when the system attempts to access a custom function that no longer exists in the AIF configuration.Cause:
- Deletion of Custom Function: The most straightforward cause is that the custom function was intentionally deleted by a developer or administrator.
- Transport Issues: If the custom function was part of a transport request that was not properly imported or was deleted in the target system, it could lead to this error.
- Configuration Changes: Changes in the AIF configuration or related objects that reference the custom function may lead to this error if the function is no longer available.
Solution:
- Recreate the Custom Function: If the function was deleted unintentionally, you can recreate it in the AIF configuration. Ensure that you have the necessary details and logic to restore the function.
- Check Transport Requests: If the deletion was part of a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that the function is present in the source system and was correctly transported to the target system.
- Review Dependencies: Check if there are any other configurations or objects that depend on the deleted function. You may need to update or remove these dependencies.
- Consult Documentation: If the function was part of a specific implementation or customization, refer to the documentation or notes related to that implementation for guidance on how to restore or replace the function.
- System Logs: Review system logs (transaction SLG1) for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the deletion and its impact.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
