  Check Fiscal Year Status: Verify if the fiscal year you are trying to modify is open. You can do this by checking the status of the fiscal year in the configuration settings or by consulting with your finance team.
  Change the Year: If the fiscal year is closed, you may need to make the changes in the next open fiscal year or in a year that allows for such modifications.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like AS02 (Change Asset) to attempt to make the changes in an open fiscal year.
  Consult Configuration: If you have the necessary permissions, check the configuration settings in the Asset Accounting module to see if there are any restrictions set for manual insurance value changes.
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide guidance based on your specific system configuration.
