• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_LIST005 - Program was launched in RFC mode ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZRE_LIST005: Program was launched in RFC mode
  
  Cause:
  This message typically appears when a program or report that is designed to run in dialog (interactive) mode is executed in RFC (Remote Function Call) mode. Some SAP programs or reports are not intended to be run remotely or in batch mode and require a user interface or dialog session to function properly.
  In other words, the program detects that it is being called via RFC, but it expects to be run in a dialog session. This mismatch causes the program to stop and issue the message WZRE_LIST005.
  
  Explanation:
  
  RFC mode means the program is called remotely, often without a user interface.
  Dialog mode means the program is run interactively by a user in an SAP GUI session.
  Some programs require user interaction or screen output and cannot run in RFC mode.
  The program checks the environment and issues this message if it detects an unsupported mode.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Run the program in dialog mode:
  
  Execute the program directly from the SAP GUI or through a transaction that runs it interactively.
  
  
  Check the calling method:
  
  If the program is being called from another program or external system via RFC, modify the call to run the program in dialog mode or use a different program designed for RFC execution.
  
  
  Use an alternative report or function module:
  
  If remote execution is necessary, check if there is an alternative report or function module designed for RFC execution that provides the required functionality.
  
  
  Modify the program (if you have development access):  
  
  Review the source code to understand why it restricts execution in RFC mode.
  If appropriate, adjust the code to allow RFC execution or separate the logic into a callable function module.
  This should be done carefully, considering the program’s design and SAP best practices.
