• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /AIF/ERROR_HANDLING196 - Debugging is not possible for msg. &1; it is not a tRFC or qRFC msg. ?

  The SAP error message /AIF/ERROR_HANDLING196 indicates that debugging is not possible for the specified message because it is neither a transactional RFC (tRFC) nor a queued RFC (qRFC) message. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Application Interface Framework (AIF), which is used for managing and monitoring interfaces in SAP systems.
  Cause:
  
  Message Type: The error arises when you attempt to debug a message that is not part of the tRFC or qRFC framework. This could be due to the message being processed in a different manner, such as a direct synchronous call or a non-RFC based communication.
  Message Status: The message may have already been processed or is in a state that does not allow for debugging.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the AIF setup that prevent proper handling of the message.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Message Type: Verify the type of message you are trying to debug. Ensure that it is indeed a tRFC or qRFC message. If it is not, you will need to use other debugging techniques.
  Use Alternative Debugging Methods: If the message is not a tRFC or qRFC, consider using standard debugging techniques in SAP, such as:
  
  Setting breakpoints in the relevant ABAP code.
  Using transaction codes like SE80 or SE37 to analyze the function modules or classes involved.
  
  
  Review AIF Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the AIF to ensure that messages are being processed correctly. This includes reviewing the interface definitions, message mappings, and error handling settings.
  Analyze Logs: Look at the AIF logs and error handling logs to gather more information about the message and its processing status. This can provide insights into why debugging is not possible.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to AIF and error handling for any specific guidance or known issues.
