• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UJP_EXCEPTION087 - Parallel consolidation error ?

  The SAP error message UJP_EXCEPTION087 indicates a parallel consolidation error in the context of SAP's Universal Journal and Financial Consolidation processes. This error typically arises when there are issues with the parallel processing of consolidation tasks, which can be due to various reasons such as data inconsistencies, configuration issues, or system resource limitations.
  Causes:
  
  Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the data being processed, such as missing or incorrect entries in the consolidation tables.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect settings in the consolidation configuration can lead to errors during the parallel processing of tasks.
  System Resource Limitations: Insufficient system resources (CPU, memory) can cause parallel processing to fail.
  Locking Issues: If multiple processes are trying to access the same data simultaneously, it can lead to locking issues that prevent successful consolidation.
  Version Conflicts: If there are different versions of the consolidation data or processes, it can lead to conflicts during parallel execution.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Consistency: Review the data in the relevant tables to ensure there are no inconsistencies or missing entries. Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to inspect the data.
  Review Configuration Settings: Ensure that the consolidation settings are correctly configured. This includes checking the settings in the Financial Consolidation module and ensuring that all necessary parameters are set correctly.
  Monitor System Resources: Check the system's performance metrics to ensure that there are enough resources available for parallel processing. If necessary, consider optimizing the system or increasing resources.
  Analyze Locking Issues: Use transaction SM12 to check for any locks that may be causing issues. If locks are found, investigate the processes holding them and resolve any conflicts.
  Check for Version Conflicts: Ensure that all relevant components and data versions are aligned and compatible. This may involve checking for updates or patches that need to be applied.
  Run Consolidation in Serial Mode: If parallel processing continues to fail, consider running the consolidation in serial mode as a temporary workaround until the underlying issue is resolved.
