This is a common scenario in SAP data migration or conversion processes, where you want to validate the execution of a program without affecting the live data.
  Cause:
  
  Test Run Mode: The program has been executed with a parameter that specifies it should run in test mode. This is often done to ensure that the logic of the program works correctly before making any changes to the actual data.
  Configuration Settings: The settings in the program or transaction may be configured to default to a test run.
  User Input: The user may have inadvertently selected an option to run the program in test mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Change Execution Mode: If you want to execute the program in production mode (i.e., to make actual changes), you need to change the execution parameters. This usually involves:
  
  Removing any flags or options that specify a test run.
  Ensuring that the relevant input fields or parameters are set to allow for a production run.
  
  
  
  Check Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific program or transaction you are using to understand how to switch from test mode to production mode.
  
  
  Consult with a Basis or Functional Consultant: If you are unsure how to change the execution mode or if you do not have the necessary permissions, consult with your SAP Basis or functional consultant for assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the program you are running, you may be using specific transaction codes related to data migration or conversion (e.g., LSMW, S/4HANA Migration Cockpit).
  Logs and Messages: Check the logs or messages generated by the program for additional context or warnings that may help you understand why it is running in test mode.
  Testing Best Practices: It is generally a good practice to run programs in test mode first to validate the logic and ensure that no unintended changes will occur.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue and successfully execute the program in the desired mode.
