• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_FI_MPROJ035 - Project &1 is currently running, start of data processing not possible ?

  The SAP error message FINS_FI_MPROJ035 indicates that a project (identified by &1) is currently in a running state, which prevents the start of data processing. This typically occurs in the context of financial projects or processes that are being executed in the background.
  Cause:
  
  Ongoing Process: The project is currently being processed by another user or job, which locks the project for any new data processing activities.
  Long-Running Jobs: A background job related to the project may be taking longer than expected, causing the project to remain in a running state.
  System Lock: There may be a system lock or a transaction that has not been completed, which is preventing further processing.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Running Jobs: 
  
  Use transaction SM37 to check for any background jobs that are currently running for the project. Look for jobs that are related to the project and see if they are still active.
  If you find a job that is stuck or taking too long, you may need to investigate further or terminate it if appropriate.
  
  
  
  Wait for Completion: 
  
  If the project is being processed by another user, you may need to wait until that process is completed before you can start your own data processing.
  
  
  
  Check Locks: 
  
  Use transaction SM12 to check for any locks on the project. If you find locks that are no longer needed, you can delete them (ensure you have the necessary authorizations and that it is safe to do so).
  
  
  
  Consult Logs: 
  
  Review any relevant logs or messages in the system that might provide more context about why the project is still running.
