• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 00131 - Skip Initial Screen is not permitted for transaction & ?

  The SAP error message "00131 Skip Initial Screen is not permitted for transaction &" typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a transaction that does not allow skipping the initial screen. This can happen in various scenarios, particularly when using transaction codes in a way that the system does not support.
  Cause:
  
  Transaction Configuration: The transaction you are trying to execute is configured to require an initial screen. Some transactions are designed to always show the initial screen to ensure that necessary parameters are set before proceeding.
  User Settings: The user profile or settings may have been altered to skip initial screens, but the specific transaction does not allow this.

  Solution:
  
  Check Transaction Code: Ensure that you are using the correct transaction code. If you are trying to execute a transaction that inherently requires an initial screen, you will need to allow it to display.
  Review User Settings: Go to your user profile settings and check if there are any options related to skipping initial screens. You may need to reset or adjust these settings.
  Use the Initial Screen: Instead of trying to skip the initial screen, simply execute the transaction normally and fill in the required fields on the initial screen.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction to understand its requirements and limitations.
