  The SAP error message "APOC_OC_CONFIG176 TEST_MODE active, before ROLLBACK WORK" typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when a transaction is executed in test mode. This message indicates that the system is in a state where it is simulating the execution of a transaction rather than committing any changes to the database.
  Cause:
  
  Test Mode Activation: The error arises when the system is set to "test mode." In this mode, the system performs checks and validations but does not execute any changes to the database. This is often used for testing purposes to ensure that the transaction will work as expected without affecting the actual data.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the APO system may have been set to run in test mode, either intentionally for testing or inadvertently.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Switch to Production Mode: If you intend to execute the transaction and make changes to the database, you need to ensure that the system is not in test mode. This can typically be done by:
  
  Changing the settings in the transaction or program you are executing.
  Checking the configuration settings in the APO system to ensure that test mode is disabled.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction Parameters: If you are using a specific transaction or program, check the parameters or options you are passing to ensure that you are not inadvertently setting it to test mode.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific transaction or program you are using to understand how to properly configure it for production use.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unsure about how to change the settings or if the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert.
