• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAT106 - Measurement already scheduled or active for this process ?

  The SAP error message SAT106, which states "Measurement already scheduled or active for this process," typically occurs in the context of performance analysis using the SAP Transaction ST05 (SQL Trace) or SAT (ABAP Trace). This error indicates that a measurement session is already in progress for the specific process or transaction you are trying to analyze.
  Cause:
  
  Active Measurement: You may have already started a measurement session for the same transaction or process. SAP does not allow multiple measurements to be active simultaneously for the same process.
  Scheduled Measurement: A measurement might be scheduled to start automatically, which conflicts with your attempt to start a new measurement.
  Session Overlap: If you are trying to start a new trace while another trace is still running, this error will occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Measurements: Before starting a new measurement, check if there are any active measurements. You can do this by going to the SAT transaction and looking for any ongoing sessions.
  Stop Active Measurement: If you find an active measurement that you no longer need, stop it. You can do this by selecting the active measurement in SAT and choosing the option to stop it.
  Wait for Completion: If you are unable to stop the active measurement, you may need to wait until it completes before starting a new one.
  Use Different Sessions: If you need to analyze multiple processes, consider using different user sessions or different transactions to avoid conflicts.
