  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_LMCFG_LIB001 - Function &1 (&2) will be started in a new task ?

    The SAP error message S_LMCFG_LIB001 indicates that a function (denoted by &1) is being executed in a new task (or background task). This message is not necessarily an error in the traditional sense; rather, it is an informational message that indicates that the function will not be executed in the current session but rather in a separate background task.

    Cause:

    This message typically occurs in scenarios where:

    • A function module or method is designed to run asynchronously or in the background.
    • The function being called is intended to perform a long-running operation that should not block the current user session.
    • The system is configured to handle certain operations in a separate task to improve performance or user experience.

    Solution:

    1. Understanding the Context: First, ensure that you understand the context in which this message is appearing. If the function is expected to run in the background, then this message is normal and does not require any action.

    2. Check for Completion: If you are expecting a result from the function, you may need to check the status of the background task to see if it completed successfully. You can do this by:

      • Using transaction codes like SM37 to monitor background jobs.
      • Checking the job logs for any errors or messages related to the function execution.
    3. Review Function Logic: If you believe that the function should not be running in the background, review the function module or method implementation to ensure that it is not explicitly coded to run asynchronously.

    4. Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the function's behavior, consult the SAP documentation or the function module's documentation for more details on its intended use.

    5. Error Handling: If the function fails in the background, ensure that proper error handling is in place to capture and log any issues that may arise during execution.

    Related Information:

    • Asynchronous Processing: In SAP, certain operations are designed to run asynchronously to avoid blocking the user interface. This is common in scenarios involving data processing, report generation, or batch jobs.
    • Background Jobs: Familiarize yourself with how to manage and monitor background jobs in SAP using transaction codes like SM37 (for job monitoring) and SM36 (for job scheduling).
    • Performance Considerations: Running functions in the background can help improve the performance of the system by allowing users to continue working while long-running processes are executed.

    If you continue to experience issues or if the function does not behave as expected, consider reaching out to your SAP Basis or development team for further investigation.
