• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_MKTGS_OL035 - Object &1 must be in edit mode to insert &2 below it ?

  The SAP error message CRM_MKTGS_OL035 indicates that you are trying to insert a new object (like a marketing plan, campaign, etc.) into a hierarchy or structure, but the parent object (the one you are trying to insert below) is not in edit mode. This is a common issue when working with objects in SAP CRM, particularly in the Marketing module.
  Cause:
  
  Parent Object Not in Edit Mode: The most common cause of this error is that the parent object you are trying to insert under is not currently in edit mode. In SAP, certain actions can only be performed when an object is being edited.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to edit the object, which can prevent it from being put into edit mode.
  Object Status: The status of the parent object may not allow for modifications. For example, if the object is in a completed or locked status, it cannot be edited.
  
  Solution:
  
  Switch to Edit Mode: Ensure that the parent object is in edit mode. You can usually do this by selecting the object and choosing the "Edit" option from the menu or toolbar.
  Check Authorizations: Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to edit the object. If you do not have the required permissions, contact your system administrator to grant you the appropriate access.
  Review Object Status: Check the status of the parent object. If it is in a status that does not allow editing, you may need to change its status or consult with your team to determine the appropriate action.
  Refresh the Session: Sometimes, simply refreshing the session or logging out and back in can resolve temporary issues with the system.
