• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AG101 - Choose a changeable single record ?

  The SAP error message AG101 ("Choose a changeable single record") typically occurs in the context of asset accounting when a user attempts to make changes to asset master data or transactions that require a specific selection of a single record. This error indicates that the system expects the user to select a single, changeable record, but either multiple records are selected or no record is selected at all.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Selections: The user may have selected multiple asset records when the system requires a single record for the operation.
  No Selection: The user may not have selected any asset record, leading to the error.
  Record Status: The selected record may not be in a changeable state (e.g., it could be locked or in a status that does not allow changes).
  Transaction Context: The transaction being executed may only allow changes to specific types of records, and the selected record does not meet those criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  Select a Single Record: Ensure that you are selecting only one asset record when prompted. If you have multiple records highlighted, deselect them and choose only one.
  Check Record Status: Verify that the selected asset record is in a changeable state. If it is locked or in a status that does not allow changes, you may need to unlock it or change its status.
  Review Transaction Requirements: Make sure that the transaction you are trying to execute is appropriate for the selected asset record. If necessary, consult the documentation or help resources for the specific transaction.
