<p class=MsoNormal><b><i><u><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span
style='font-size:12.0pt;font-weight:bold;font-style:italic'>As far as I
understood, when you execute the item directly from your<br>
inbox then it works fine. But if you execute the item from the<br>
workflow log (for example from SWI1), then the message "Maximum Internal
Sessions Reached" is triggered.<br>
<br>
This is due to technical reasons: maximal number of internal sessions<br>
is limited to 9. This means that when you display the workflow log,<br>
then display the workflow technical log, then try to execute the item<br>
and execute PA40 transactions, too much internal sessions are opened.<br>
Each time a CALL TRANSACTION or a CALL DIALOG occurs, then a new<br>
internal session is created. This is the reason why the system<br>
behaves differently according to the path you use in order to execute<br>
the work item. PA40 uses CALL DIALOG and in the step 2032 of the<br>
workflow WS90100045 (task TS90100152), the method BOR object calls the
transaction PA40.<br>
<br>
More information concerning the internal session can be found under<br>
the note 34154.<br>
<br>
This behavior can not be changed, thank you for your understanding.</span></font></u></i></b><b><i><u><font

What about if you look in the log, find the WI number and then access it from

<br>
Internal Sessions are the levels you drill down through and can back navigate
through. External Sessions are the GUI level windows you can see and can have a
maximum of 6 per login. <br>
<br>
Internal Sessions are created each time you drill down inside an interactive
ABAP. If you've been on the ABAP courses then you may remember drilling down
from SPFLI, through SFLIGHT and down to SBOOK maybe even then into SCUSTOM.
This would represent 4 internal sessions. There is a hard maximum of 9 of
these. <br>
<br>
As to why the navigation you performed before upgrade and now is being treated
differently I don't know. Can you process PA40 normally when not going via the
WF?<br>
<br>
Good luck,<br>
