SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: BANK_PP - Parallel Processing Messages

• Message number: 100

• Message text: Export parameters are not permitted in asynchronous mode

What causes this issue?

The system cannot return any export parameters if parallel processing
is called up unsynchronously.

System Response

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

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BANK_PP100 - Export parameters are not permitted in asynchronous mode ?

  The SAP error message "BANK_PP100 Export parameters are not permitted in asynchronous mode" typically occurs when you are trying to call a function module or method in an asynchronous manner, but the function module or method has export parameters defined. In SAP, when a function is called asynchronously, it cannot return values through export parameters, as the calling program does not wait for the function to complete before continuing execution.
  Cause:
  
  Asynchronous Call: The function module or method is being called in an asynchronous context (e.g., using CALL FUNCTION ... IN BACKGROUND TASK).
  Export Parameters: The function module or method has export parameters defined, which are not compatible with asynchronous calls.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you have a couple of options:
  
  
  Change the Call to Synchronous: If possible, change the call to the function module or method to be synchronous. This way, the calling program will wait for the function to complete, allowing it to return values through export parameters.
  CALL FUNCTION 'YOUR_FUNCTION_MODULE'
    EXPORTING
      param1 = value1
      param2 = value2
    IMPORTING
      result = result_variable.
  
  
  Modify the Function Module: If you have control over the function module, consider redesigning it to use changing or table parameters instead of export parameters. This way, it can be called asynchronously without causing an error.
  
  
  Use a Different Approach: If the function must be called asynchronously and cannot be changed, consider using a different approach to handle the data. For example, you could write the necessary data to a database table and then process it later.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Function Module Documentation: Check the documentation for the specific function module you are using to understand its parameters and intended usage.
  SAP Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to the specific function module or error message for any known issues or additional guidance.
  Asynchronous Processing: Familiarize yourself with how asynchronous processing works in SAP ABAP, including the use of background jobs and the implications of using asynchronous calls.
  
  By addressing the cause of the error and implementing one of the solutions, you should be able to resolve the issue and proceed with your development.
