• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /AIF/ENGINE_BDC007 - Only sessions with status "New" or "Error" will be processed ?

  The SAP error message /AIF/ENGINE_BDC007 indicates that the system is attempting to process sessions that are not in the correct status. Specifically, the message states that only sessions with the status "New" or "Error" will be processed. This error typically occurs in the context of the Application Interface Framework (AIF) when dealing with batch input sessions.
  Cause:
  
  Session Status: The error arises when the system tries to process sessions that are already in a status other than "New" or "Error". For example, sessions that are "Processed", "Finished", or "Canceled" cannot be processed again.
  Session Management: There may be a misunderstanding or mismanagement of session statuses, leading to attempts to reprocess sessions that are not eligible for processing.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Session Status: Go to transaction SM35 (Batch Input Monitoring) and check the status of the sessions. Ensure that you are only trying to process sessions that are marked as "New" or "Error".
  Reprocess Error Sessions: If you find sessions with the status "Error", you can reprocess them by selecting the session and choosing the option to process it again.
  Delete or Archive Processed Sessions: If there are sessions that are already processed and you do not need them anymore, consider deleting or archiving them to avoid confusion in the future.
  Review AIF Configuration: Ensure that the AIF configuration is set up correctly to handle session statuses appropriately. This may involve checking the settings related to session handling in the AIF configuration.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on managing batch input sessions and AIF configurations.
