  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /FTI/BO_STRUCT_DEL039 - The system is currently activating. Try again later ?

    The SAP error message /FTI/BO_STRUCT_DEL039 indicates that the system is currently in the process of activating a business object structure, and therefore, the requested operation cannot be completed at that moment. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Financial Transaction Management (FTI) or similar modules where business object structures are being modified or activated.

    Cause:

    1. Ongoing Activation Process: The most common cause of this error is that another process is currently activating a business object structure. This can happen if multiple users or processes are trying to activate or modify the same structure simultaneously.
    2. Long-running Processes: Sometimes, the activation process may take longer than expected due to system performance issues or large data volumes.
    3. Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If a structure is locked for activation, other requests will be queued until the activation is complete.

    Solution:

    1. Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait for a few moments and then try the operation again. The activation process may complete shortly.
    2. Check Activation Status: If you have access, check the status of the activation process. You can do this by using transaction codes like SM37 (Job Monitoring) to see if there are any long-running jobs related to the activation.
    3. Identify Locks: Use transaction SM12 to check for any locks on the business object structure. If you find a lock that seems to be causing the issue, you may need to investigate further or contact your system administrator.
    4. System Performance: If the activation process is taking too long, consider checking system performance metrics. You may need to optimize the system or schedule heavy processes during off-peak hours.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review SAP notes or documentation related to the specific business object structure you are working with. There may be specific recommendations or known issues related to the activation process.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the error message. You can search for relevant notes in the SAP Support Portal.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE80 (Object Navigator), and SE37 (Function Builder) for further investigation into the business object structures.
    • User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to perform the activation or modification of the business object structures.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
