Hi,

I have a local class containing static methods. When I perform a syntax check, every instance where a class method is called, an error is displayed "Type /LPROFILE/ZCL_P2D_KPI is unknown".

Implementation:

Method call:

The error messages displayed:

PS: The class name is used correctly.

Thanks in advance.

I had the same problem, and I noticed that if you log off and then login the issue is automatically fixed.  I guess if you activate the class  /LPROFILE/ZCL_P2D_KPI in the same session as the consumer class, some kind class name cache is not automatically refreshed.
