• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARRIC_OL022 - Simulation mode: active ?

  The SAP error message FARRIC_OL022 indicates that the system is currently in "simulation mode." This typically means that the transaction or process you are trying to execute is being run in a mode that does not allow for actual changes to be made to the database or system state. Instead, it is intended for testing or validation purposes.
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode Active: The system is set to run in simulation mode, which is often used for testing purposes. This can happen if the user or the system administrator has activated this mode intentionally.
  Configuration Settings: Certain configurations in the SAP system may default to simulation mode for specific transactions or processes.
  User Permissions: The user may not have the necessary permissions to execute the transaction in a non-simulation mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Simulation Mode Setting: 
  
  If you are an end-user, check if there is an option to toggle off simulation mode in the transaction you are using. This is often found in the settings or options menu.
  If you are a system administrator, review the configuration settings for the specific transaction or process to ensure that it is not set to run in simulation mode by default.
  
  
  
  User Permissions:

  Consult Documentation:
