• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_PERF_MSG338 - SQL: Commit after filling table ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/OM_PERF_MSG338 SQL: Commit after filling table typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is an issue related to database transactions, particularly during the process of committing data to the database after filling a table.
  Cause:
  
  
  Database Locking Issues: The error may arise due to database locks that prevent the commit operation from completing successfully. This can happen if another transaction is holding a lock on the same table or if there are long-running transactions.
  
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user executing the transaction may not have the necessary authorizations to perform a commit operation on the database.
  
  
  Database Configuration: There may be issues with the database configuration or performance, such as insufficient resources (memory, CPU) or misconfigured parameters.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: If there are integrity constraints (like foreign key constraints) that are violated during the commit, it can lead to this error.
  
  
  Network Issues: If there are network interruptions or issues between the application server and the database server, it can lead to transaction failures.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Database Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the database tables. If locks are found, you may need to resolve them by either waiting for the locks to be released or by contacting the user holding the lock.
  
  
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the commit operation. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
  
  
  Monitor Database Performance: Check the database performance metrics to ensure that it is not under heavy load. You may need to optimize queries or increase resources if necessary.
