  Check Row Statuses: Review the statuses of the rows in the ALV grid. Ensure that all selected rows have the same status before attempting to perform the action.
  Select Uniform Rows: If you need to perform an action, select only those rows that share the same status. You may need to deselect some rows or filter the list to ensure uniformity.
  Refresh the ALV: Sometimes, refreshing the ALV grid can help in re-evaluating the statuses and ensuring that the data displayed is up to date.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the statuses or the actions you can perform, refer to the relevant SAP documentation or user guides for the specific transaction or report you are working with.
