• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KV654 - Background processing test run without detailed list ?

  The SAP error message KV654 indicates that a background processing test run was executed without generating a detailed list. This typically occurs in the context of a background job that is intended to simulate a process (like a pricing run or a billing run) without actually posting any changes to the database.
  Cause:
  The error message KV654 can arise due to several reasons:
  
  Test Run Configuration: The job was configured to run in test mode, which means it will not produce a detailed list of results.
  Missing Output Settings: The output settings for the job may not be configured to generate a detailed list.
  Job Execution Parameters: The parameters passed during the job execution may not include options for detailed output.
  System Settings: There may be system-wide settings that affect how background jobs are processed and reported.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the KV654 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Job Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the background job. Ensure that it is set up correctly to generate a detailed list if that is required.
  If you are running a test run, confirm whether a detailed list is necessary for your testing purposes.
  
  
  
  Adjust Output Settings:
  
  Go to the job definition and check the output settings. Ensure that the option to generate a detailed list is selected if needed.
  
  
  
  Review Execution Parameters:
  
  When scheduling the job, ensure that the parameters include options for generating detailed output. This may involve checking the job variant or the selection criteria used.
  
  
  
  Run in Production Mode:
  
  If you need a detailed list and are currently in test mode, consider running the job in production mode instead. This will typically generate the detailed output.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to the SAP documentation for the specific transaction or program you are using to understand the expected behavior and output options.
  
  
  
  Check for System Settings:
  
  If the issue persists, check with your SAP Basis team to see if there are any system-wide settings that might be affecting background job processing.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may want to look into transaction codes like SM37 (to monitor background jobs) and SM36 (to define background jobs) for more insights.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific program or transaction you are working with.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to execute the job and view the detailed output.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the KV654 error and ensure that your background processing job generates the required detailed list.
