  The SAP error message CM_EHDGM_TBR005, which states "You can't apply unsaved classifications," typically occurs in the context of classification management within SAP, particularly when dealing with characteristics and classifications of materials or objects.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when you attempt to apply a classification to an object (like a material or a document) that has not been saved yet.

  Review User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to apply classifications. Sometimes, user roles may restrict certain actions.
