  The SAP error message FCC1753, which states "Cannot edit task; task opened in display mode," typically occurs when a user attempts to edit a task that is currently opened in display mode rather than edit mode. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause and potential solutions can help resolve the issue.
  Cause:
  
  Display Mode: The task is opened in display mode, which means that the user does not have the necessary permissions or the task was opened in a way that restricts editing.
  User Permissions: The user may not have the required permissions to edit the task.
  Task Locking: The task might be locked by another user or process, preventing any edits.
  System Configuration: Certain configurations in the SAP system may restrict editing capabilities based on the status of the task.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Mode: Ensure that you are opening the task in edit mode. Look for an "Edit" button or option in the user interface.
  Permissions: Verify that you have the necessary permissions to edit the task. If not, contact your SAP administrator to request the appropriate access rights.
  Task Locking: Check if the task is locked by another user. You can do this by using transaction codes like SM12 (to view locks) and SM21 (to check system logs). If it is locked, you may need to wait for the other user to finish or contact them to release the lock.
  Refresh the Session: Sometimes, simply refreshing the session or logging out and back in can resolve temporary issues.
  Check Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to ensure that there are no system settings preventing editing of tasks in certain scenarios.
