• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SOMO/JOBMON132 - &1 is active ?

  The SAP error message /SOMO/JOBMON132 &1 is active typically indicates that a job or process is currently running or active in the SAP system, which is preventing the execution of another job or process that may be dependent on it. This message is often encountered in the context of job monitoring or scheduling within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Job Conflict: The job you are trying to start or manage is conflicting with another job that is already running.
  Resource Locking: The job may be holding onto resources that are required for the new job to start.
  Job Dependencies: There may be dependencies set up in the job scheduling that require the first job to complete before the second can start.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Jobs: Use transaction codes like SM37 (Job Monitoring) to check the status of active jobs. Look for the job that is causing the conflict.
  Wait for Completion: If the job is expected to complete soon, you may need to wait for it to finish before starting the new job.
  Cancel or Delete Job: If the job is stuck or taking too long, you may consider canceling or deleting it. This can be done in SM37 by selecting the job and choosing the appropriate action.
  Review Job Scheduling: Check the job scheduling settings to ensure that there are no unnecessary dependencies or conflicts.
  Consult Logs: Review the job logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate why the job is still active.
