Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Application and User Management workcenter
- Go to Data Extraction view
- Select New
- Run ID: XXXXX
- Run Description: YYYYY (where YYYYY represents the Run Description of Data Extraction)
- Select Extraction object: XYZ
- Choose to Save
- Select Activate and Run
- While the Run is still in process without an Extraction Status, you select the Run and select the button Change Status and choose Set to Obsolete
- System throws the mentioned error
Cause
While the Data Extraction Run is scheduled to run and is in progress, you are trying to interrupt the Run.
Resolution
Once you Activate and Run the Data Extraction for any object, if the Data Extraction is still in progress, you would not be able to interrupt the Run or set the status of the Run to Obsolete.
If the Run has completed with the Extraction Status as Finished, you would be able to set the status of the Run to Obsolete.
