  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FAGL_SWITCH_OP879 - Q2P activation request exists for &2/&1. ?

    The SAP error message FAGL_SWITCH_OP879 indicates that there is an activation request pending for a specific switch (in this case, the switch is identified by the parameters &2 and &1). This typically occurs in the context of the New General Ledger (New GL) functionality in SAP, where certain features or functionalities are activated through switch requests.

    Cause:

    The error arises when you attempt to activate or switch on a feature in the New GL, but there is already an existing activation request that has not been processed or completed. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:

    • An incomplete or failed activation of a previous request.
    • A pending transport request that has not yet been imported into the system.
    • A configuration change that requires a switch to be activated but is blocked by the existing request.

    Solution:

    To resolve the FAGL_SWITCH_OP879 error, you can follow these steps:

    1. Check the Transport Request:

      • Go to transaction code SE01 or SE09 to check for any transport requests related to the New GL switch. Look for requests that are in the "Modifiable" or "Released" status.
    2. Process Pending Requests:

      • If you find a pending request, you may need to process it. This could involve releasing the request or importing it into the target system if you are working in a landscape with multiple systems (e.g., Development, Quality, Production).
    3. Review Activation Logs:

      • Check the activation logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the previous request is still pending. You can do this by navigating to transaction code SNOTE or SLG1 (Application Log) to see if there are any relevant logs.
    4. Consult with Basis Team:

      • If you are unable to resolve the issue, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis team. They can help you analyze the transport requests and system logs to identify any underlying issues.
    5. Check for Dependencies:

      • Ensure that there are no dependencies or prerequisites that need to be fulfilled before activating the switch. Sometimes, certain configurations or settings must be in place before a switch can be activated.
    6. Retry Activation:

      • Once the pending request is processed or resolved, you can retry the activation of the switch.

      • Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on managing New GL switches.
