• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTR_TRADE_REP107 - External trade ID &1 cannot be changed because it was already reported ?

  The SAP error message FTR_TRADE_REP107 indicates that an external trade ID (identified by &1) cannot be changed because it has already been reported. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly in the area of treasury and risk management, where trades are reported to external authorities or systems.
  Cause:
  
  Trade Reporting: The trade associated with the external trade ID has already been reported to a regulatory body or an external system. Once a trade is reported, it is often locked for further changes to maintain data integrity and compliance.

  Solution:
  
  Check Reporting Status: Verify if the trade has indeed been reported. You can check the reporting status in the relevant transaction or report.
  Consult with Compliance: If changes are necessary, consult with your compliance or legal team to understand the implications of modifying a reported trade.
  Create a New Trade: If changes are required, consider creating a new trade entry instead of modifying the existing one. This way, you can maintain the integrity of the reported data.
  Use a Different External Trade ID: If you need to make adjustments, you may need to use a different external trade ID for the new entry.
  System Configuration Review: If you believe that changes should be allowed, review the system configuration with your SAP Basis or functional team to see if adjustments can be made to allow for changes under certain conditions.
