• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KE744 - Restart not possible because CEJ has been rebuilt in the meantime ?

  The SAP error message KE744, which states "Restart not possible because CEJ has been rebuilt in the meantime," typically occurs in the context of controlling (CO) and profitability analysis (CO-PA) when there is an issue with the execution of a report or transaction that relies on the CO-PA data.
  Cause:
  The error is generally caused by the following scenarios:
  
  
  Data Consistency Issues: The CEJ (CO-PA line item table) has been rebuilt or changed after a report was started, which means that the data the report was using is no longer valid or consistent with the current state of the database.
  
  
  Concurrent Processes: If multiple users or processes are trying to access or modify the same data simultaneously, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  System Updates or Changes: If there have been recent updates or changes to the system that affect the CO-PA data structure or the underlying database, it can trigger this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the KE744 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Restart the Report: The simplest solution is to restart the report or transaction that triggered the error. This will allow the system to fetch the most current data from the CEJ.
  
  
  Check for Concurrent Processes: Ensure that no other users or processes are modifying the CO-PA data while you are trying to run your report. If possible, coordinate with your team to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  Review Recent Changes: If there have been any recent changes to the system (like updates, configuration changes, or data uploads), review those changes to ensure they did not inadvertently affect the CO-PA data.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on the CO-PA data to ensure that there are no underlying issues with the data integrity.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP Support for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as KE30 (Report for CO-PA) and KE24 (Line Item Display) to analyze CO-PA data.
  CO-PA Configuration: Understanding the configuration of CO-PA in your SAP system can help in diagnosing issues related to data consistency and reporting.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify CO-PA data, as lack of permissions can also lead to errors.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the KE744 error effectively.
