• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TFC0112 - Test run: & is already active. Scheduling currently not possible ?

  The SAP error message TFC0112 ("Test run: & is already active. Scheduling currently not possible") typically occurs when you attempt to schedule a test run for a process that is already active or in progress. This can happen in various contexts, such as background jobs, batch processing, or other scheduled tasks within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Active Test Run: The primary cause of this error is that there is already an active test run for the specified process or job. SAP does not allow multiple instances of the same test run to be scheduled simultaneously.
  Job Overlap: If a job is already running or has not completed, attempting to schedule another instance of the same job will trigger this error.
  System Lock: There may be a system lock or a session that is preventing the scheduling of a new test run.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Jobs: Use transaction codes like SM37 (Job Monitoring) to check if there are any active jobs or test runs that are currently running. If you find an active job, you may need to wait for it to complete or terminate it if it is stuck.
  Review Job Logs: Look at the job logs to understand why the job is still active. This can provide insights into whether it is running as expected or if there are issues causing it to hang.
  Terminate Stuck Jobs: If you identify a job that is stuck or not progressing, you can terminate it using the SM37 transaction. Be cautious when terminating jobs, as this may have implications depending on what the job is doing.
  Wait for Completion: If the job is running as expected, you may simply need to wait for it to complete before scheduling a new test run.
  Check for Locks: If you suspect that there are locks preventing the scheduling, you can check for locks using transaction SM12 and release any unnecessary locks.
