• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DPR_PARTICIPANT149 - Role type &1 is assigned to role in P system. PartnFunc cannot be changed ?

  The SAP error message DPR_PARTICIPANT149 indicates that there is an issue with the assignment of a role type in the Project Management (DPR - Dynamic Project Management) module. Specifically, it suggests that a role type is assigned to a role in the P (Project) system, and as a result, the Partner Function (PartnFunc) cannot be changed.
  Cause:
  
  Role Assignment: The role type you are trying to modify is currently assigned to a role in the project system. This means that the system is preventing changes to the Partner Function because it is linked to an existing role.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that changes do not lead to inconsistencies in the project data. If a role is actively being used in a project, certain attributes cannot be modified.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Role Assignments: Review the role assignments in the project to see if the role type is actively being used. You can do this by navigating to the project structure and checking the roles assigned to various participants.
  Remove Role Assignment: If the role type needs to be changed, you may need to remove the assignment of that role from the project. This can be done by:
  
  Navigating to the project in question.
  Accessing the role management section.
  Removing or changing the role assignment.
  
  
  Change Partner Function: Once the role assignment is removed, you should be able to change the Partner Function as needed.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the implications of changing role assignments, consult the SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as CJ20N (Project Builder) or CJI3 (Project Actual Line Items) to navigate through project roles and assignments.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional context or updates that may address the issue.
  User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to roles and partner functions in the project system.
