2788155 - S/4HANA Output Control output status changed to completed but in SP01 spool list you see error "frontend unavailable"

You are using S/4HANA Output Control output determination logic.
You set up rules in transaction OPD to determined an output record whose dispatch time is 1-immedate in a purchasing document which uses BRF+ technology. This would mean that immediately at the document's saving/approving the output determined and processed too (sending data to vendor).
The status of the output message is "completed" , but in SP01 at the spool you see error "frontend unavailable".

You also notice that for example at a purchase order's case, if you set the dispatch time to 2-scheduled, then you can print manually via ME9ff a similar case.
