The SAP error message
/BCV/QRM873
indicates a discrepancy between the function ID of a formula in the context of BRFplus (Business Rule Framework plus) and the expected function ID in the query. This error typically arises when there is a mismatch in the configuration or when the formula has been modified or deleted in BRFplus, but the query still references the old or incorrect function ID.Cause:
- Formula Modification: The formula associated with the function ID has been changed or deleted in BRFplus.
- Transport Issues: If the BRFplus configuration was transported from one system to another, the function ID may not have been correctly transported or may not exist in the target system.
- Versioning Issues: Different versions of the formula may exist in different environments (development, testing, production), leading to inconsistencies.
- Manual Changes: Manual changes to the BRFplus configuration that were not properly documented or communicated can lead to such discrepancies.
Solution:
Check BRFplus Configuration:
- Go to the BRFplus workbench and verify that the formula with the specified function ID exists and is active.
- Ensure that the function ID in the query matches the one in BRFplus.
Recreate or Update the Formula:
- If the formula has been deleted or modified, you may need to recreate it or update the query to reference the correct function ID.
Transport Consistency:
- Ensure that all relevant BRFplus objects have been transported correctly between systems. Check for any missing transports that may contain the necessary function IDs.
Check for Version Conflicts:
- If you are working in a multi-environment setup, ensure that the same version of the formula is available across all environments.
Consult Documentation:
- Review any documentation or change logs related to the BRFplus configuration to identify any recent changes that may have led to this issue.
Debugging:
- If the issue persists, consider debugging the query execution to trace where the mismatch occurs.

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.
