This error typically arises in scenarios where there are issues with the processing of bgRFC queues, particularly when there are units of work that are still pending or in a state that prevents the status change.
  Cause:
  
  Pending Units: There are still units of work in the bgRFC queue that have not been processed or are in a state that prevents the status change.
  Inconsistent State: The bgRFC framework may be in an inconsistent state due to previous errors or interruptions in processing.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues related to the bgRFC setup or the specific application that is using bgRFC.

  Clear Locks: If there are locks on the units, you may need to clear them. This can be done using transaction SM12 to check for and delete any unnecessary locks.
  Reconfigure bgRFC: If configuration issues are suspected, review the bgRFC configuration settings in transaction SMD or SCC4 to ensure they are set up correctly.
