• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_10020088 - Filling or deletion job for &1 &2 is already running ?

  The SAP error message CNV_10020088 indicates that a filling or deletion job for a specific object (denoted by &1 and &2) is already in progress. This error typically occurs in the context of data migration or conversion processes, often related to the SAP S/4HANA migration or other data transformation projects.
  Cause:
  
  
  Concurrent Jobs: The most common cause of this error is that there is already an active job running for the same object. This can happen if:
  
  A previous job has not yet completed.
  A job was accidentally started multiple times.
  There is a long-running job that is still processing.
  
  
  
  System Locking: The system may have a locking mechanism that prevents multiple jobs from running simultaneously on the same object to avoid data inconsistencies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Active Jobs:
  
  Use transaction codes like SM37 (Job Monitoring) to check for any active jobs related to the object in question. Look for jobs that are in a "Running" or "Released" state.
  If you find an active job, you may need to wait for it to complete before starting a new one.
  
  
  
  Cancel or Delete Stuck Jobs:
  
  If a job is stuck or taking too long, you can consider canceling it. In SM37, select the job and choose the option to cancel it.
  Be cautious when canceling jobs, as this may lead to data inconsistencies if the job was performing critical operations.
  
  
  
  Review Job Scheduling:
  
  Ensure that jobs are scheduled appropriately to avoid overlaps. Implement checks in your job scheduling process to prevent multiple instances of the same job from being triggered.
  
  
  
  System Logs:
  
  Check system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about why the job is still running or if there are any underlying issues.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific migration or conversion process you are working on. There may be specific guidelines or best practices to follow.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  SM37: Job Monitoring
  SM21: System Log
  SLG1: Application Log
  
  
  SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to the CNV_10020088 error for any specific patches or updates that may address known issues.
  Performance Considerations: If jobs are frequently taking too long, consider reviewing the performance of the underlying processes or the database to identify potential bottlenecks.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the CNV_10020088 error and ensure that your data migration or conversion jobs run smoothly.
