• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C+603 - New session started ?

  The SAP error message C+603, which states "New session started," typically occurs when a user attempts to start a new session in SAP while already having the maximum number of allowed sessions open. This is a common issue in SAP environments where users may have multiple sessions open for different tasks.
  Cause:
  
  Session Limit Reached: Each user in SAP has a limit on the number of sessions they can open simultaneously. This limit is set by the system administrator and can vary based on the organization's configuration.

  User Behavior: Users may forget to close old sessions or may not be aware of the session limit.
  
  Solution:
  
  Close Unused Sessions: The simplest solution is to close any unnecessary sessions. You can do this by navigating to each open session and logging out or closing the window.
  Check Session Limit: If you frequently hit the session limit, check with your SAP administrator to understand the current session limit and whether it can be adjusted.
  Use Transaction Codes Efficiently: Try to use transaction codes that allow you to perform multiple tasks within a single session, reducing the need for multiple open sessions.
  Log Off Properly: Ensure that you log off from sessions properly to free up resources.
  Session Management Tools: Some organizations implement session management tools or practices to help users manage their sessions more effectively.
