    SAP Error Message:
    WS_EA025 Background processing only via option "Job Scheduling" allowed
    
    
    Cause: This error occurs when a program or transaction that is designed to run only in background mode (via job scheduling) is attempted to be executed directly in the foreground (interactive mode).
