  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PF1/BANK_GENERAL101 - Method call up in simulation mode; LUW is in update mode ?
    The SAP error message /PF1/BANK_GENERAL101 Method call up in simulation mode; LUW is in update mode typically occurs in the context of a banking or financial application within SAP, particularly when there is a mismatch between the processing mode of a method call and the logical unit of work (LUW) mode.
    
    Cause: Simulation Mode vs. Update Mode: The error indicates that a method is being called in simulation mode while the LUW is set to update mode. This can happen if the system is trying to execute a method that is intended for simulation (i.e., it does not change the database) while the transaction is expected to perform actual updates.
    Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the banking module that are not aligned, leading to this inconsistency. Custom Code: If there are custom enhancements or modifications in the code, they might not be handling the modes correctly, leading to this error.
