• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GD132 - No jobs were deleted ?

  The SAP error message GD132 ("No jobs were deleted") typically occurs when you attempt to delete background jobs in the SAP system, but the system finds that there are no jobs that meet the criteria for deletion. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause can help you find a solution.
  Causes:
  
  No Jobs Exist: The most straightforward reason is that there are simply no background jobs in the specified status (e.g., scheduled, released, etc.) that can be deleted.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria you used to filter jobs may not match any existing jobs. For example, if you are filtering by job name, user, or date, and there are no jobs that match those criteria, you will receive this message.
  Job Status: You may be trying to delete jobs that are in a status that does not allow deletion (e.g., jobs that are currently running or finished).
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations to delete jobs may also lead to this error, although it typically results in a different error message.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Job Status: Verify the status of the jobs you are trying to delete. You can do this by navigating to transaction code SM37 (Job Monitoring) and checking the status of the jobs.
  Adjust Selection Criteria: Review and adjust your selection criteria to ensure that you are targeting the correct jobs. Make sure you are not filtering out jobs unintentionally.
  Use Correct Transaction: Ensure you are using the correct transaction for deleting jobs. The transaction code for deleting jobs is SM37 for monitoring and SM36 for scheduling jobs.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete background jobs. You may need to consult with your SAP security administrator if you suspect authorization issues.
  Job Deletion: If you are sure that there are jobs to delete, try to delete them individually or in smaller batches to see if that resolves the issue.
