• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FINS_REV_REC152 - Number of parallel work processes must be between 2 and &1. ?

  The SAP error message FINS_REV_REC152 indicates that the number of parallel work processes configured for a specific task or operation is outside the acceptable range. Specifically, it states that the number of parallel work processes must be between 2 and a specified upper limit (denoted as &1).
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  The configuration for parallel processing in the SAP system is set incorrectly, either too low (less than 2) or too high (beyond the system's capacity).
  The system settings for parallel processing are not aligned with the requirements of the transaction or process being executed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration Settings:
  
  Go to the transaction code RZ10 or RZ11 to check the profile parameters related to parallel processing.
  Look for parameters such as rdisp/wp_no_dia (for dialog work processes) and rdisp/wp_no_btc (for background work processes) to ensure they are set correctly.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Number of Work Processes:
  
  If the number of parallel work processes is set to less than 2, increase it to at least 2.
  If it is set too high, reduce it to a number that is within the acceptable range specified by the error message.
  
  
  
  Review System Capacity:
  
  Ensure that your system has enough resources (CPU, memory) to handle the number of parallel processes you are trying to configure.
  Consult with your Basis team to understand the optimal configuration based on your system's hardware and workload.
  
  
  
  Restart the Application:
  
  After making changes to the configuration, you may need to restart the relevant application or the entire SAP system for the changes to take effect.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to parallel processing for specific guidelines and best practices.
