• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WLC_PARALLEL045 - Field &1 in table &2 is not available ?

  The SAP error message WLC_PARALLEL045 indicates that a specific field in a specified table is not available for processing in a parallel execution context. This error typically arises in scenarios where parallel processing is attempted, but the system encounters a field that is not suitable for such operations.
  Cause:
  
  
  Field Not Available: The field specified in the error message is not available in the context of the operation being performed. This could be due to:
  
  The field being part of a structure that is not included in the parallel processing context.
  The field being locked or not accessible due to the current transaction state.
  The field being part of a table that is not designed for parallel processing.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that restrict certain fields from being accessed in parallel processing.
  
  
  Data Consistency: The data in the table may not be consistent or may have been modified in a way that makes the field unavailable.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Field Availability: Verify that the field mentioned in the error message is indeed available in the specified table. You can do this by checking the data dictionary (SE11) for the table and field.
  
  
  Review Parallel Processing Settings: If you are using a custom program or report, review the logic to ensure that the field is being accessed correctly in a parallel processing context. You may need to adjust the program to avoid accessing fields that are not suitable for parallel processing.
  
  
  Modify the Program Logic: If the field is not necessary for the parallel processing, consider modifying the program to exclude it or to handle it in a different way.
  
  
  Check for Locks: Ensure that there are no locks on the table or field that could be causing the unavailability. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to parallel processing and the specific tables and fields you are working with. There may be known issues or recommendations.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot find a resolution, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. Provide them with the error message details and the context in which it occurs.
