Maximum Internal Sessions Reached

[Mark Pyc]

G'day Sue,

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.

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.

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?

Good luck,
Mark
