• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C2295 - Unexpected COMMIT WORK ?

  The SAP error message C2295, "Unexpected COMMIT WORK," typically occurs in the context of ABAP programming when there is an unexpected or inappropriate use of the COMMIT WORK statement. This statement is used to commit database changes made during a transaction. If it is used in a context where it is not expected, or if it is used multiple times in a way that violates the transaction control flow, this error can be triggered.
  Causes:
  
  Improper Use of COMMIT WORK: The COMMIT WORK statement may be placed in a location where it is not allowed, such as within a loop or in a subroutine that is not designed to handle transaction control.
  Multiple COMMIT WORK Statements: If there are multiple COMMIT WORK statements executed in a single logical unit of work, it can lead to this error.
  Database Lock Issues: If there are issues with database locks or if the transaction is not properly managed, it can also lead to this error.
  Event Handling: If COMMIT WORK is called in an event handler (like PAI or PBO) where it is not expected, it can cause this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Review Code Logic: Check the ABAP code to ensure that COMMIT WORK is used appropriately. It should typically be used at the end of a logical unit of work, not in loops or subroutines that are called multiple times.
  Single COMMIT WORK: Ensure that there is only one COMMIT WORK statement per logical unit of work. If you need to commit changes from multiple operations, consider restructuring the code to ensure that only one commit is executed.
  Transaction Management: Use transaction management techniques properly. If you are using CALL FUNCTION or CALL METHOD, ensure that the function or method is designed to handle transactions correctly.
  Debugging: Use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and identify where the COMMIT WORK is being called unexpectedly. This can help pinpoint the exact location causing the issue.
  Check for Locks: Investigate if there are any database locks that might be causing issues with the transaction. Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
