• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FAA_CMP019 - Editing not possible due to company code status ?

  The SAP error message FAA_CMP019, which states "Editing not possible due to company code status," typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when you attempt to edit or post transactions related to an asset in a company code that is not in a valid status for such operations.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Company Code Status: The company code may be set to a status that does not allow for asset transactions. This could be due to the company code being closed for a specific period (e.g., year-end closing) or being flagged for a specific status (like "not active").
  Period Locking: The posting period for the company code may be closed, preventing any changes or postings to assets.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the Asset Accounting module that restrict editing based on the company code status.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FAA_CMP019 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Company Code Status:
  
  Go to the transaction code OBY6 (or use the menu path: SPRO > Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Company Code > Edit, Copy, Delete, Check Company Code).
  Verify the status of the company code in question. Ensure that it is active and not set to a status that would prevent asset transactions.
  
  
  
  Check Posting Period:
  
  Use transaction code OB52 to check the posting periods for the company code. Ensure that the period you are trying to post to is open.
  If the period is closed, you may need to open it temporarily to allow for the necessary changes.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in Asset Accounting to ensure that there are no restrictions based on the company code status.
  You can access the configuration through transaction code SPRO and navigate to the relevant sections for Asset Accounting.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Administrator:
  
  If you do not have the necessary authorizations to make changes, consult with your SAP administrator or finance team to address the issue.
  
  
  
  Check for Other Restrictions:
  
  Ensure that there are no other restrictions or locks in place that could be causing the issue, such as user authorizations or system settings.
