Note 719941 - CALL_FUNCTION_WAIT_ERROR in ALE environment

Summary

Symptom

If you have scheduled the RBDAPP01 program as background job and have maintained the relevant variant in an incorrect way, the system may issue an ABAP CALL_FUNCTION_WAIT_ERROR runtime error.

Other terms

RFC, ALE, CALL_FUNCTION_WAIT_ERROR, RBDAPP01

Reason and Prerequisites

The problem arises if the RBDAPP01 program is terminated before the responses of the sent asynchronous tasks are returned by the RFC server program.

Remark:

Note that the CALL_FUNCTION_WAIT_ERROR ABAP runtime error can also occur with other applications if the calling program is terminated before it receives the responses of the sent asynchronous tasks of the RFC server program.

Solution

If the RBDAPP01 program is scheduled as a background job and you used an asynchronous RFC with a response in the variant to set up a parallel processing, also set the indicator
"Wait for end of processing".

For Example:

Parallel X
Server group idoc_processing
Wait for end of processing X <=====

Voraussetzung:

Note that you must first implement the correction from Note 547253.
