• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 62787 - Only 'Process session immediately' possible in background ?

  The SAP error message "62787 Only 'Process session immediately' possible in background" typically occurs when you are trying to execute a batch input session in the background, but the session is not configured correctly for that mode. This error indicates that the session can only be processed immediately and cannot be executed in the background.
  Cause:
  
  Session Type: The session you are trying to run is set up in a way that it requires immediate processing. This can happen if the session is created with certain parameters or if it includes specific types of transactions that cannot be executed in the background.
  Transaction Restrictions: Some transactions or processes may have restrictions that prevent them from being run in the background due to their nature (e.g., they may require user interaction).
  Session Status: The session might be in a status that does not allow it to be processed in the background.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Change Processing Mode: If you want to run the session in the background, you need to ensure that it is set up correctly. You can do this by:
  
  Going to the transaction code SM35 (Batch Input Monitoring).
  Selecting the session you want to process.
  Checking the session attributes to ensure it is suitable for background processing.
  If necessary, create a new session with the correct settings that allow for background processing.
  
  
  
  Process Immediately: If the session cannot be changed to allow background processing, you may need to process it immediately instead. You can do this by:
  
  Selecting the session in SM35.
  Choosing the option to process it immediately.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction: If the session includes transactions that are not allowed to run in the background, you may need to review the transactions involved and see if there are alternatives or adjustments that can be made.
