• Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message VQ294 - "The info structure is updated synchronously."
  
  SAP Message: VQ294
  Text: The info structure is updated synchronously.
  
  Cause
  This message appears when an attempt is made to update an Info Structure (IS) in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP ERP Sales and Distribution (SD) module, but the system detects that the Info Structure is set to be updated synchronously rather than asynchronously.
  
  Info Structures are used in SAP SD for reporting purposes and can be updated either synchronously (immediately during the transaction) or asynchronously (via batch jobs).
  When synchronous updating is active, the system updates the Info Structure immediately during the transaction processing.
  If you try to trigger an asynchronous update or perform an action that conflicts with the synchronous update setting, the system issues this message.
  
  
  Explanation
  
  Synchronous update means the Info Structure is updated in real-time during the transaction.
  This can impact performance because the update happens immediately.
