SAP automation freezes during scheduled execution after upgrading to Blue Prism 7.2.2

Hello,
After upgrading Blue Prism from version 6.9 to 7.2.2, we are experiencing a critical issue during SAP automation.

The same process that worked flawlessly in 6.9 now encounters a problem when executed via schedules in 7.2.2: during a specific SAP transaction, a loading bar appears indefinitely, and the process halts. SAP becomes unresponsive at that point, and the automation does not proceed.

Interestingly, if we run the process manually in debug mode (using Step Out), the transaction completes successfully and SAP responds as expected. This issue only occurs during scheduled execution.

Issue Summary:

  • SAP transaction hangs with an indefinite loading bar

  • SAP GUI becomes unresponsive during scheduled runs

  • Process does not progress beyond the Wait/Navigate stage in Blue Prism

  • Debug mode execution (Step Out) runs the process successfully without issues

Environment Details:

  • Blue Prism version: 7.2.2 (previous version: 6.9)

  • SAP GUI version: 8000.1.5.1161

  • SAP scripting: Enabled

  • Execution method: Blue Prism Scheduler

  • Automation approach: Attach → Navigate → Wait → Get Text

Actions Taken:

  • Adjusted wait conditions and timeout settings

  • Reconfigured SAP GUI settings

  • Launched Blue Prism with admin rights

  • Reinstalled and patched SAP GUI

We would appreciate guidance on whether this is a known issue in 7.2.2 or if there are additional compatibility configurations required for SAP automation to function correctly during scheduled executions.
