What causes this issue?

You want to edit an inactive simulation version.
If you transfer a simulation to the corresponding operative project,
the system sets the 'inactive' indicator for all the other simulation
versions in the project.
The indicator can also be set manualy by choosing <lS>Simulation ->
Administrative data</>.

System Response

An inactive version can only be displayed, not edited.
&hints&
The 'inactive' indicator can be reset in the administrative data;
however usually this is not advisable since inconsistencies between the
reactivated version and the operative project are likely.
