Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SMB/Q2P_CC008 - Exit &1 does only run in local mode. Current mode is &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SMB/Q2P_CC008 Exit &1 does only run in local mode. Current mode is &2 typically indicates that a specific exit or function module is designed to run only in local mode, but the current execution context is set to a different mode (e.g., remote mode).
  Cause:
  
  Execution Context: The exit or function module is intended to be executed in a local context (i.e., on the same application server where the request originated). If the system is trying to execute it in a different context (like a remote call), this error will occur.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings that dictate how certain processes are executed, and if these are not set correctly, it can lead to this error.
  Code Logic: The code may have been written with the assumption that it would always run locally, and any attempt to run it in a different mode will trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Execution Mode: Ensure that the function or exit is being called in the correct mode. If it is supposed to run locally, make sure that the calling process is set up to execute it locally.
  Modify Code: If you have access to the code, you may need to modify it to handle both local and remote execution contexts, if applicable.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings related to the execution of the exit or function module. Ensure that they are set to allow local execution.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or notes related to the specific exit or function module to understand its intended usage and any constraints.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Look for SAP Notes related to the specific exit or function module for any known issues or patches.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE37 (Function Module) to investigate the function module or exit in question.
  Debugging: If you have debugging access, you can set breakpoints to see how the function is being called and what the current execution context is.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution.
