• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G00135 - Front-end function cannot be executed in batch ?

  The SAP error message G00135 ("Front-end function cannot be executed in batch") typically occurs when a function or operation that is intended to be executed in the SAP GUI (Graphical User Interface) is attempted to be executed in a batch processing context. This error indicates that the function you are trying to use is not supported in batch mode.
  Cause:
  
  Front-end Functionality: The function you are trying to execute requires user interaction or is dependent on the graphical user interface, such as displaying a dialog box, using a GUI control, or accessing local files.
  Batch Processing Context: The operation is being executed in a background job or batch input session, where no user interface is available.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Functionality: Review the function or transaction you are trying to execute. Ensure that it is suitable for batch processing. If it requires user interaction, consider using a different approach or transaction that is designed for batch processing.
  Use Background-Compatible Functions: If you need to perform a similar operation in batch mode, look for alternative function modules or transactions that are specifically designed to run in the background.
  Modify the Program: If you are developing a custom program, ensure that you are not calling any front-end specific functions when running in batch mode. Use conditional checks to determine if the program is running in the foreground or background and adjust the logic accordingly.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your batch job to gracefully manage situations where a front-end function is inadvertently called.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the SAP Help Portal or the specific documentation for the function module or transaction you are using to understand its limitations regarding batch processing.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this error or provide guidance on best practices for batch processing.
