• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FQ450 - Execution not active ?

  The SAP error message FQ450: Execution not active typically occurs in the context of the SAP Financial Accounting (FI) module, particularly when dealing with the execution of certain financial processes, such as payment runs or other batch jobs. This error indicates that the execution of a particular process is not currently active, which can be due to several reasons.
