• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EEDM_CALC_INST098 - Calculation not possible; formula profiles already being processed by &1 ?

  The SAP error message EEDM_CALC_INST098 indicates that a calculation cannot be performed because the formula profiles are currently being processed by another instance. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Data Management or Data Warehousing environments, where multiple processes may attempt to access or modify the same data simultaneously.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Processing: The error usually arises when multiple jobs or processes are trying to access the same formula profile at the same time. This can happen in batch processing scenarios or when multiple users are trying to execute calculations that involve the same data.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If one process has locked a formula profile for processing, other processes will be unable to access it until the lock is released.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for the other process to complete. Once the lock is released, you can retry your calculation.
