# Processing Messages and Pause Reasons

> The refusals before a run, the pause reasons of a background run, and the error codes a record can carry, with whether it may be retried.

> **Draft brief for authors.** Three tables: refusals before a run · pause reasons · record error codes (with "retryable or not").

**Page type:** Reference · **Audience:** Business user, Administrator

**Refusals:** MASS_PROC_ALREADY_RUNNING · MASS_PROC_JOB_PAUSED · MASS_PROC_NAMED_USER_REQUIRED · MASS_PROC_SAP_USER_NOT_AUTHORIZED · MASS_PROC_SAP_USER_NOT_ACCEPTED · MASS_PROC_SAP_USER_CHECK_FAILED · MASS_PROC_IDENTITY_UNKNOWN · MASS_PROC_SCHEDULE_NAMED_USER_UNSUPPORTED · MASS_PROC_SCHEDULER_UNAVAILABLE · MASS_PROC_RUN_USER_SESSION_EXPIRED · MASS_PROC_ROW_CHANGED / _AFTER_SEND · MASS_PROC_JOB_INLINE_INTERRUPTED · MASS_PROC_RETRY_NOTHING_RETRYABLE · MASS_PROC_CLEARS_* · the technical destination refusals (link `messages-connection`).

**Pause reasons:** User · SAP system not responding (after 5 minutes) · Connection to SAP not usable · Interrupted · Interrupted (named user) · Sign-in expired · Add-on quota used up, each with the next step.

**Record error codes:** Rejected by SAP · Not found in SAP · Invalid · SAP_USER_NOT_AUTHORIZED · SAP_OUTCOME_UNKNOWN · Not processed · Status not saved · Changed during processing, each with "retryable" yes/no.
