  Text: Please select a number of parallel jobs that is greater than 0
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to start a process or job in SAP (often related to background processing, data distribution, or workflow) and the system expects you to specify the number of parallel jobs (parallel processing threads) to run simultaneously. However, the value entered is either zero or not specified, which is invalid.
  In other words, the system requires a positive integer greater than zero to determine how many parallel jobs should be executed, but the input is missing or set to zero.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  When scheduling or configuring parallel processing jobs in SAP (e.g., in ALE distribution, workflow processing, or background job scheduling).
  When using transaction codes or programs that require parallel job execution parameters.
  During configuration or execution of distribution models or data transfer processes
