• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_TASK034 - Activity &1 for task &3 in status &2 is not permitted ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_TASK034 typically indicates that there is an issue with the status of a task in the Change Request Management (ChaRM) or Project Management (CPM) module. The message suggests that the activity you are trying to perform on a specific task is not allowed due to its current status.
  Cause:
  
  Task Status: The task you are trying to modify or perform an action on is in a status that does not permit the action. For example, if the task is in a "Completed" or "Closed" status, you may not be able to make changes to it.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the action on the task.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured in such a way that certain actions are restricted based on the task's status.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Task Status: Review the current status of the task (indicated by &2 in the error message). If the task is in a status that does not allow the action you are trying to perform, you may need to change the status of the task to one that does allow the action.
  Change Task Status: If you have the necessary permissions, you can change the status of the task to a permissible one (e.g., from "Completed" to "In Progress") and then retry the action.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that you have the appropriate authorizations to perform the action on the task. If not, contact your system administrator to grant the necessary permissions.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to review the settings related to task statuses and permissible actions.
