• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_WD_INFRA035 - Object cannot be changed in this system ?

  The SAP error message FDT_WD_INFRA035 ("Object cannot be changed in this system") typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori or Web Dynpro applications when a user attempts to modify an object (like a UI component or configuration) that is not allowed to be changed in the current system environment. This can happen for several reasons:
  Causes:
  
  System Type: The system you are working in might be a production system or a system where changes are restricted. In such cases, only certain users or roles may have the permission to make changes.
  Transport Layer: The object you are trying to change may be locked or not available for modification due to transport layer settings. This is common in systems where changes are managed through transport requests.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the object in question.
  Object Status: The object might be in a status that does not allow changes, such as being in a released state or marked as "not modifiable."
  Development vs. Production: If you are in a production environment, certain objects may be locked to prevent changes that could affect system stability.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check System Type: Verify if you are in a development, quality assurance, or production system. If you are in production, you may need to perform changes in a development system and transport them.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that your user role has the necessary permissions to modify the object. You may need to contact your SAP security team to review and adjust your authorizations.
  Transport Request: If the object is part of a transport request, ensure that the request is released and that you are working in the correct environment (development or quality).
  Object Status: Check the status of the object. If it is locked or in a non-modifiable state, you may need to unlock it or change its status through appropriate transactions.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific object or component you are trying to modify for any additional restrictions or guidelines.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes in the SAP Support Portal that may provide additional insights or solutions specific to your version of SAP.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator), SE11 (Data Dictionary), or SE37 (Function Module) to check the status and properties of the object.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums to see if other users have encountered similar issues and what solutions they found effective.
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, it may be beneficial to involve your SAP Basis or development team for further investigation.
