  The SAP error message /CEECV/ROLO013 Input both options (SAVE and RESTORE) at one time is not allowed typically occurs in the context of using the SAP system for data management, particularly when dealing with the SAVE and RESTORE operations in a specific transaction or program.
  Cause:
  This error arises when a user attempts to execute both the SAVE and RESTORE operations simultaneously in a single transaction or function call. The system does not allow these two operations to be executed at the same time because they serve opposite purposes: 
  
  SAVE is used to store or back up data.

  Solution:

  Review Your Input: Check the input parameters or options you are providing in the transaction or program. Make sure that you are not selecting both SAVE and RESTORE options.
  
  
  Separate Transactions: If you need to perform both operations, you should execute them in separate transactions. First, complete the SAVE operation, and once it is successfully executed, you can then proceed with the RESTORE operation.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about how to properly execute these operations, refer to the relevant SAP documentation or user guides for the specific transaction or program you are using.
  
  
  Check for Custom Code: If you are using a custom program or transaction, review the code to ensure that it does not inadvertently trigger both operations at the same time.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
