  SAP Error Message:
  
  WSTRN211 Processing cancelled by user
  
  Cause:
  This message indicates that a background or foreground process in SAP was manually cancelled or interrupted by the user. It is not an error caused by system malfunction or data inconsistency but rather a user-initiated termination of the process.
  Common scenarios include:  
  
  The user pressed the Cancel button during a long-running transaction or report.  
  The user stopped a batch job or background process manually.  
  The user aborted a dialog step or transaction.
  
  
  Solution:
  Since this message is informational and indicates user cancellation, the solution depends on the context:
  
  
  If cancellation was accidental:  
  
  Re-run the transaction or report and allow it to complete without interruption.  
  Avoid pressing Cancel or stopping the process unless necessary.
  
  
  
  If cancellation was intentional:  
  
  No further action is needed unless the process must be completed.  
  If the process is critical, inform the user to avoid cancelling it.
  
  
  
  If cancellation happened due to system performance issues:  
  
  Check system performance and logs to ensure the process is not taking too long.  
  Optimize the process or schedule it during off-peak hours.
  
  
  
  For background jobs:  
  
  Verify if the job was cancelled manually via SM37 or by a user.  
  Restart the job if needed.
