• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TPDA155 - Breakpoints were transformed to session breakpoints ?

  The SAP error message TPDA155 indicates that breakpoints in your ABAP program have been transformed into session breakpoints. This typically occurs when you are debugging an ABAP program and the system detects that the breakpoints set in the code cannot be processed in the current context, leading to their conversion.
  Cause:
  
  Session Context: The breakpoints you set may not be valid in the current session context. For example, if you are debugging a background job or a different user session, the breakpoints may not be applicable.
  Debugging Mode: The system might be in a mode where it cannot handle the breakpoints as expected, such as when debugging a remote function call (RFC) or in certain transaction environments.
  User Authorizations: Lack of proper authorizations can also lead to issues with breakpoints being recognized.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Debugging Context: Ensure that you are in the correct debugging context. If you are debugging a background job, consider switching to a dialog session or using the appropriate transaction for debugging background jobs.
  Set Breakpoints Appropriately: If you are debugging a program that runs in a different session or context, consider using session breakpoints instead of regular breakpoints. You can set session breakpoints in the ABAP Editor or Debugger.
  Review Authorizations: Make sure that you have the necessary authorizations to debug the program. Check your user roles and authorizations related to debugging.
  Use the Correct Debugger: If you are using an older version of the debugger, consider switching to the new ABAP Debugger, which may handle breakpoints more effectively.
  Check for Syntax Errors: Ensure that there are no syntax errors in the code that might prevent the debugger from recognizing the breakpoints.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Debugging ABAP Programs: Familiarize yourself with the debugging tools available in SAP, including the ABAP Debugger and how to set breakpoints effectively.
