  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GENERATOR139 - Unable to insert any more functions in function group &1 ?

    The SAP error message /BOBF/COM_GENERATOR139 indicates that you are unable to insert any more functions in a function group due to reaching the limit of the number of functions that can be defined within that function group. This is a common issue when working with ABAP function groups, especially in complex applications or when many functions are being created.

    Cause:

    1. Function Group Limit: Each function group in SAP has a limit on the number of function modules it can contain. This limit is typically set by the system and can vary based on the version and configuration of your SAP system.
    2. System Configuration: The system may have been configured to restrict the number of function modules for performance or organizational reasons.

    Solution:

    1. Review Function Group: Check the existing function modules in the function group to see if any can be deleted or consolidated. If there are unused or redundant function modules, consider removing them.
    2. Create a New Function Group: If the current function group is at its limit, you may need to create a new function group to accommodate additional function modules. This can be done using transaction code SE80 or SE37.
    3. Refactor Code: If possible, refactor your code to reduce the number of function modules needed. This might involve combining related functions into a single function module or using methods in classes instead of function modules.
    4. Check for System Notes: Sometimes, SAP releases notes or patches that can address specific limitations or issues. Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant notes that might pertain to your version of SAP.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE37 (Function Builder) to manage function groups and modules.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation for guidelines on function group limits and best practices for organizing function modules.
    • Performance Considerations: Keep in mind that having too many function modules in a single group can impact performance. It’s often better to organize them logically across multiple groups.

    If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, consider reaching out to your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.

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.
