• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DO679 - No objects found for parallel processing ?

  The SAP error message DO679 ("No objects found for parallel processing") typically occurs when a background job or a parallel processing task is initiated, but there are no objects available for processing. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to execute a batch job or when using parallel processing features in SAP.
  Causes:
  
  No Data Available: The most common cause is that there are no records or objects that meet the criteria for processing. This could be due to filters applied in the selection criteria.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection parameters used to identify the objects for processing may be too restrictive or incorrect.
  Job Configuration Issues: The background job or parallel processing task may not be configured correctly, leading to no objects being selected for processing.
  Data Locking: If the data is locked by another process, it may not be available for the current job.
  System Issues: There could be issues with the SAP system itself, such as performance problems or configuration errors.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria used for the job or process. Ensure that they are set correctly and that there are indeed objects that meet these criteria.
  Data Availability: Verify that there are records available for processing. You can do this by running a query or report that uses the same selection criteria.
  Job Configuration: Review the configuration of the background job or parallel processing task. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that the necessary parameters are defined.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the data that might prevent processing. If locks are found, you may need to wait for them to be released or resolve the locking issue.
  Review Logs: Check the job logs or application logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
  System Performance: If the system is experiencing performance issues, consider checking system resources and performance metrics. You may need to optimize the system or schedule jobs during off-peak hours.
