  The SAP error message /ACCGO/MCK_MAINT871 STATUS is changed in current session typically occurs in the context of the SAP S/4HANA system, particularly when dealing with the maintenance of master data or transactional data in the context of the Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO) modules. This error indicates that the status of a particular object has changed during the current session, which can lead to inconsistencies or conflicts when trying to perform certain operations.
  Causes:
  
  
  Concurrent Changes: The most common cause is that another user or process has changed the status of the object you are trying to work with while you were still in the session. This can happen in environments where multiple users are accessing and modifying the same data simultaneously.
  
  
  Session Timeout: If your session has been open for a long time, the data may have been updated by another user or process, leading to a mismatch in the expected status.
  
  
  Data Locking: SAP uses locking mechanisms to prevent data inconsistencies. If the object you are trying to modify is locked by another transaction, you may encounter this error.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Refresh the Session: Try refreshing your session or logging out and back in. This can help synchronize your session with the current status of the data.
  
  
  Check for Concurrent Users: If you suspect that another user is making changes, check with your team to see if someone else is working on the same data. If possible, coordinate to avoid conflicts.
  
  
  Review Change Logs: If you have access, review the change logs for the object in question to understand what changes were made and by whom.
  
  
  Retry the Operation: After refreshing your session or confirming that no other changes are being made, try to perform the operation again.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
