• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LT_DHAPE_UTIL013 - Job would exceed user limit: 3 ?

  The SAP error message LT_DHAPE_UTIL013 indicates that a job is attempting to exceed the user limit set for background processing. Specifically, the message states that the job would exceed the user limit of 3, meaning that the user has a restriction on the number of background jobs they can run simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  User Limit Exceeded: The user has reached the maximum number of background jobs they are allowed to run at the same time. This limit is set in the user profile.
  System Configuration: The system may have been configured to limit the number of concurrent background jobs for performance reasons or to manage system resources effectively.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Background Jobs: Review the currently running background jobs for the user. You can do this by using transaction code SM37. Look for jobs that are still in the "active" state and consider terminating any that are no longer needed.
  
  
  Increase User Limit: If the user needs to run more jobs concurrently, you can increase the limit in the user profile:
  
  Go to transaction SU01.

  Look for the parameter "bgjob" (or similar) that defines the maximum number of background jobs.
  Increase the value as needed and save the changes.
  
  
  
  Job Scheduling: If increasing the limit is not feasible or desirable, consider scheduling jobs to run at different times to avoid exceeding the limit.
  
  
  Consult Basis Team: If you do not have the necessary authorizations to change user limits or if you are unsure about the implications of changing these settings, consult your SAP Basis team for assistance.
