  The SAP error message /CPD/PFP_MESSAGES347 indicates that you are trying to insert new records into a financial plan or version that is currently closed. This typically occurs in the context of financial planning and budgeting within SAP, where certain versions or plans are locked to prevent changes after a certain point in time.
  Cause:
  
  Closed Financial Plan/Version: The financial plan or version you are trying to modify is marked as closed. This means that no new records can be added or existing records modified.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the financial plan or version.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to prevent changes to closed versions as part of the business process.

  Check the Status: Verify the status of the financial plan or version you are trying to modify. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP and checking the version status.
  Open the Version: If you need to make changes, you may need to open the financial plan or version. This typically requires administrative privileges. You can do this through the relevant transaction (e.g., transaction code /CPD/PFP or similar) and changing the status from "closed" to "open."
  Create a New Version: If the version cannot be opened due to business rules, consider creating a new version for your changes. This allows you to maintain the integrity of the closed version while still being able to work on new data.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the financial plan or version. If not, contact your SAP administrator to request the appropriate permissions.
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or guidelines provided by your organization regarding financial planning processes in SAP.
