• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKKBIX2077 - Simulation mode - data has not been saved ?

  The SAP error message FKKBIX2077 indicates that you are in simulation mode, which means that the system is set to simulate the processing of transactions without actually saving any data. This is a common scenario in SAP when you want to test or review the results of a transaction without making any permanent changes to the database.
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode: The most common cause of this error is that the transaction is being executed in simulation mode. This is often done to check the results of a transaction before committing it to the database.
  Configuration Settings: Certain configurations in the SAP system may default to simulation mode for specific transactions or processes.
  User Settings: The user may have inadvertently set their session or transaction to run in simulation mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  Exit Simulation Mode: To resolve this error, you need to exit simulation mode. Look for an option in the transaction screen that allows you to switch from simulation to actual processing. This may involve unchecking a "Simulation" checkbox or selecting a different processing mode.
  Check Transaction Parameters: Review the parameters or settings for the transaction you are trying to execute. Ensure that it is set to perform actual processing rather than simulation.
  User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to execute the transaction in a non-simulation mode. If you lack the required permissions, you may need to contact your SAP administrator.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure how to change the mode, refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to the specific transaction you are using.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: The error may occur in various transaction codes related to financial accounting, such as F-02 (Post Document), F-03 (Clear Document), or others.
  Testing Transactions: Simulation mode is often used in testing scenarios, so if you are in a testing environment, ensure that you are aware of the implications of switching to actual processing.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address issues related to simulation mode for specific transactions.
