• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPCE/FKGR_MESSAGE002 - Report dumped; exporting to local file not possible in background mode ?

  The SAP error message /SAPCE/FKGR_MESSAGE002 Report dumped; exporting to local file not possible in background mode typically occurs when there is an attempt to export data to a local file while running a report in background mode, which is not allowed in certain contexts or configurations.
  Cause:
  
  Background Processing Limitations: In SAP, certain operations, such as exporting data to a local file, are restricted in background processing. This is because background jobs do not have access to the local file system of the user who scheduled the job.
  Program Logic: The report or program being executed may contain logic that attempts to perform file operations that are incompatible with background execution.
  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing the background job from accessing the necessary resources or performing the required actions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Change Execution Mode: If possible, run the report in foreground mode instead of background mode. This allows the report to access the local file system and perform the export.
  Modify Report Logic: If you have access to the report's code, modify it to check if it is running in background mode and avoid executing file export operations in that case.
  Use Alternative Export Methods: Instead of exporting to a local file, consider exporting to an application server or using other methods such as sending the output via email or storing it in a database table.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the background job has the necessary authorizations to perform the required actions.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions for common problems.
