• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EI080 - Only one test run ('D','E','F') is possible in simulation mode ?

  The SAP error message EI080, which states "Only one test run ('D','E','F') is possible in simulation mode," typically occurs in the context of executing a simulation run for certain processes in SAP, such as during the execution of a test run for a program or transaction that is designed to simulate the actual processing without making any changes to the database.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system detects that multiple test runs are being attempted in simulation mode. In SAP, certain transactions or programs are restricted to allow only one test run in simulation mode to prevent confusion or unintended consequences from multiple simulations being executed simultaneously. The letters 'D', 'E', and 'F' refer to different types of test runs that can be executed, and the system is indicating that only one of these can be processed at a time in simulation mode.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following
