  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZ802 - Processing canceled
  
  Cause:
  The error message WZ802 - Processing canceled typically occurs during workflow processing in SAP. It indicates that the workflow or a particular step in the workflow has been canceled or terminated before completion. This can happen due to several reasons, such as:
  
  Manual cancellation by a user or administrator.
  An error or exception in the workflow logic or task processing.
  Missing or incorrect data required for the workflow step.
  Authorization issues preventing the workflow from proceeding.
  System or communication errors interrupting the workflow execution.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the WZ802 Processing canceled error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Workflow Logs:
  
  Use transaction SWI1 (Workflow Log) or SWI2_FREQ to analyze the workflow instance and identify where and why it was canceled.
  Look for error messages or status changes that indicate the cause of cancellation.
  
  
  
  Review Workflow Configuration:
  
  Verify the workflow definition in SWDD to ensure all steps and conditions are correctly configured.
  Check if any mandatory data or parameters are missing or incorrect.
  
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the users involved in the workflow have the necessary authorizations to perform their tasks.
  Use transaction SU53 after the error occurs to check for authorization failures.
  
  
  
  Investigate System Issues:
  
  Check for system dumps (transaction ST22) or short dumps related to the workflow processing.
  Review system logs (transaction SM21) for any relevant errors.
  
  
  
  Restart or Reprocess Workflow:
  
  If the workflow was canceled unintentionally, you may restart or reprocess the workflow instance.
  Use transaction SWI2_FREQ to find canceled workflows and restart them if appropriate.
  
  
  
  Correct Data Issues:
  
  If the cancellation was due to missing or incorrect data, correct the data in the relevant application and restart the workflow.
