  The SAP error message FOPCS600, which states "Frozen structure setup due to sign-off or carryforward," typically occurs in the context of financial planning and controlling (FICO) modules, particularly when dealing with planning versions or periods that have been finalized or carried forward.

  Sign-off Process: The error usually indicates that the planning version or the data structure has been "frozen" due to a sign-off process. This means that the data is no longer editable because it has been approved or finalized.
