• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GL373 - The export rollup of G/L acct.transaction figures is already in progress ?

  The SAP error message GL373 indicates that there is an ongoing process related to the export rollup of General Ledger (G/L) account transaction figures. This typically occurs when a rollup process is already running for the specified G/L account, and a new request to start the rollup is made before the previous one has completed.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Rollup Processes: The most common cause of this error is that a rollup process for the same G/L account is already in progress. This can happen if multiple users or processes attempt to initiate the rollup simultaneously.
  Long-Running Processes: If the previous rollup process is taking longer than expected due to a large volume of data or system performance issues, it may lead to this error.
  System Locking: The system may have locking mechanisms in place that prevent multiple rollup processes from running at the same time to ensure data integrity.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait for Completion: The simplest solution is to wait for the current rollup process to complete. You can check the status of the rollup in the relevant transaction (e.g., transaction code SE38 or SM37) to see if it is still running.
  Monitor Background Jobs: Use transaction code SM37 to monitor background jobs. Look for jobs related to the rollup process and check their status. If a job is stuck or taking too long, you may need to investigate further.
  Cancel Stuck Jobs: If you find that a rollup job is stuck and not progressing, you may need to cancel it. Be cautious when doing this, as it may affect data integrity. Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations and that you understand the implications of canceling a job.
  Check for System Performance Issues: If rollup processes are frequently taking too long, consider checking system performance and optimizing database performance or adjusting the batch job scheduling.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
