• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APPLG859 - Duration (max) ?

  The SAP error message APPLG859 "Duration (max)" typically indicates that a process or operation has exceeded the maximum allowed duration. This can occur in various contexts, such as long-running background jobs, workflows, or other processes that have a defined time limit.
  Cause:
  
  Long-Running Processes: The process may be taking longer than expected due to data volume, inefficient coding, or resource constraints.
