• Message class: 8Z - Messages for Inflation Adjustment

• Message number: 271

• Message text: Integrated valuation run already running

What causes this issue?

When you valuate foreign currency items using the integrated procedure,
the system generates an entry in table J_1AINFW_FILES with the key
X_001, and deletes it again after the valuation run has finished.
The table currently contains such an entry, which means that either
another integrated run is being executed or the system generated a file
in a previous valuation run but could not process it.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Wait for the other integrated valuation run to finish or process the
file from the previous run.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 8Z271 - Integrated valuation run already running ?

  The SAP error message 8Z271 ("Integrated valuation run already running") typically occurs when a valuation run is attempted while another instance of the same run is already in progress. This is a safeguard to prevent data inconsistencies and ensure that the valuation process is not executed multiple times simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  
  Concurrent Execution: The most common cause is that a valuation run is already being executed in the system. This can happen if:
  
  A user has initiated a valuation run and has not completed it.
  A background job is running that performs the valuation.
  There is a system or user error that has left a valuation process in a locked state.
  
  
  
  System Lock: The system may have a lock on the valuation process due to a previous run that did not complete successfully or was terminated unexpectedly.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Running Processes:
  
  Use transaction SM66 (Global Work Process Overview) or SM50 (Work Process Overview) to check if there is an active valuation run.
  Look for any jobs that might be running in the background using transaction SM37 (Job Monitoring).
  
  
  
  Wait for Completion: If you find that a valuation run is currently in progress, you may need to wait for it to complete before starting a new one.
  
  
  Terminate Stuck Processes: If you determine that a valuation run is stuck or has failed:
  
  You can terminate the process using transaction SM50 or SM66. Be cautious when doing this, as terminating processes can lead to data inconsistencies.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks: If the issue persists, check for any locks in the system that might be preventing the valuation run from starting. You can use transaction SM12 (Display and Delete Locks) to view and manage locks.
  
  
  Review Logs: Check the application logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about why the valuation run is not completing.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific valuation process you are working with, as there may be additional considerations or known issues.
