• Key Concepts: 
  A server control block (SCB) is a component of the SAP Internet Communication Framework (BC-MID-ICF). It is a data structure that contains information about an active server process, such as the process ID, the user ID, and the client ID. It also stores information about the current state of the server process, such as whether it is running or waiting for a response. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The SCB is used by the ICF to manage server processes. When a request is received, the ICF creates an SCB and assigns it to the server process. The SCB is then used to track the progress of the request and to store any data that needs to be passed between the client and server. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When troubleshooting an issue with an ICF server process, it can be helpful to look at the SCB associated with that process. This can provide valuable information about what is happening in the process and can help identify any potential issues.
