Forbes Council Member and SAP S/4HANA Cloud Solution Architect RahulBhatia shares an article that provides a comprehensive guide on planning a public cloud ERP implementation. It emphasizes the importance of thorough preparation and strategic planning to ensure a successful transition to cloud-based ERP. One of the first steps is to define clear objectives and outcomes for the implementation project, aligning them with overall business goals. The article suggests conducting a needs assessment to identify specific requirements and gaps in current systems. Engaging stakeholders early in the process is crucial, as their input can guide decision-making and foster buy-in. Bhatia recommends forming a dedicated project team with representatives from various departments to ensure diverse perspectives. A detailed project timeline with milestones should be established to track progress and maintain momentum. Choosing the right vendor is another critical step; organizations should evaluate potential partners based on their expertise, track record, and support capabilities. The article highlights the necessity of budgeting for not just the initial implementation but also ongoing maintenance and potential scaling needs. Training and change management are essential components, as employees must be equipped to adapt to new systems and processes. The guide also stresses the importance of data migration and integrity, advising organizations to develop a robust plan for transferring data to the new ERP system. Testing the system before going live is crucial to identify and address any issues. Post-implementation support and continuous improvement should be part of the long-term strategy, ensuring the ERP system evolves with the organization’s needs. Bhatia encourages organizations to remain flexible and open to adjustments throughout the implementation process, as challenges are likely to arise. By following these guidelines, businesses can enhance their chances of a successful public cloud ERP implementation that delivers long-term benefits.

If you’re receiving this error, its usually a simple fix. Also note your IBM Websphere SystemOut.log should be throwing exception errors as well.
First let’s make sure no crystalras.exe processes are using a lot of CPU power, if they are zeroed out, chances are no one is in the system attempting to run a report:
Once that is verified, open up the Central Configuration Manager directly on the LBI server and highlight your SAP Crystal Reports Server processes, click STOP
Wait 10 seconds while they are in STOPPED status, then select and start them back up.
Now log back into LBI and try to run reports.
If this is still not working, try to reboot the entire server again. If it’s not resolved, it’s likely something with your configuration settings.
Good luck!
If you have a job in job schedular that has a status of Waiting or Waiting on Time and you would need it to run immediately, you can assign the highest priority to the job and it will run immediately on the designated queue regardless of how congested the job queue is. If another job that calls the same program in the same data area is already running, however, the selected job is given a status of Waiting Step and is still listed on the Waiting Jobs form.
To run a waiting job immediately
- Access Job Scheduler and click the Waiting Jobs button.
- Select the Waiting or Waiting on Time job that you want to run.
- From the Actions menu, select Run Job Immediately.
- If you want to change the job queue, select the name of the job and click Change.
This job queue overrides the job queue assigned for the job when it was submitted. If you do not assign a job queue, Job Scheduler assigns the default job queue (**********).

Problem:
I ran AP155 and AP170 before running AP150 and received the same message that there is no data in report file. I ran AP150 again and am seeing the same message.
Please see screenshots below:
Resolution:
Check AP52 if it shows that these invoices are waiting to be brought into Lawson via AP520.
Run the AP520 in update mode and then process the AP150.
