System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

This is generally not a problem and the master job should stop within
the next few minutes. If this is a recurring problem, it is possible
that the master job is stuck. Go to SM37 and search for job
/1LT/IUC_REP_MSTR to identify the work process that is used to execute
the job. With this information, check transaction SM50 to identify what
the job is currently doing. It may have stopped because the connection
to the remote system is broken. In this case, you can try to stop the
job manually either by stopping the job in SM37 or by cancelling the
work process in transaction SM50.
