Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TL748 - Statistical run started by user & is still active ?

  The SAP error message TL748 indicates that a statistical run has been initiated by a user and is still active. This typically occurs in the context of statistical analysis or reporting processes within SAP, such as during the execution of a statistical key figure or during the execution of a report that requires statistical data.
  Cause:
  
  Long-Running Process: The statistical run may be taking longer than expected due to a large volume of data or complex calculations.
  User Session: The user who initiated the run may still have an active session, which prevents the system from completing the process.
  System Performance: Performance issues in the SAP system can lead to delays in processing, causing the statistical run to remain active longer than usual.
  Locking Issues: There may be database locks or other processes that are preventing the statistical run from completing.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Active Sessions: Use transaction code SM66 (Global Work Process Overview) or SM50 (Process Overview) to check for active sessions and processes. Identify if the statistical run is still running and if it can be terminated.
  Monitor Performance: Check system performance metrics to see if there are any bottlenecks. You can use transaction ST22 for dumps or SM21 for system logs to identify any issues.
  Terminate the Process: If the statistical run is stuck and not progressing, you may need to terminate the process. This can be done from the process overview screens (SM50 or SM66).
  Re-run the Process: After terminating the stuck process, you can attempt to re-run the statistical analysis or report. Ensure that the data volume is manageable and that the system is performing optimally.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues related to statistical runs. You can search for notes in the SAP Support Portal.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SM50, SM66, ST22, and SM21 for monitoring and troubleshooting.
  Performance Tuning: Consider reviewing system performance tuning guides if this issue occurs frequently, as it may indicate underlying performance issues.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to properly initiate and monitor statistical runs to avoid long-running processes.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team or consult SAP support for further assistance.
