How To Fix G00057 - Function not supported because task group &1 is group-dependent

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: G00 - SAP Consolidation

• Message number: 057

• Message text: Function not supported because task group &1 is group-dependent

What causes this issue?

The data monitor (or the period) should be closed.
As the quantity of tasks (from task group &V1&) are only a partial
quantity of all tasks to be executed in dimension &V2&, version &V3&
and period &V4&, closing the data monitor (or the period) is not
possible in this monitor display:
In dimension &V2& all relevant tasks have not been executed and blocked
yet. The displayed overall status only refers to the displayed quantity
of tasks.
If the possibility existed here, to close the data monitor or the
period, in a more global monitor display, you would be forced to cancel
the requested function for the execution of the remaining tasks.
Therefore this function is only available when all tasks to be executed
in the dimension are blocked.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G00057 - Function not supported because task group &1 is group-dependent ?

  The SAP error message G00057 indicates that a function cannot be executed because the task group specified is group-dependent. This typically means that the function you are trying to perform is restricted based on the task group assigned to the user or the transaction being executed.
  Cause:
  
  Task Group Dependency: The function you are trying to access is restricted to certain task groups. This is often a result of configuration settings in the SAP system that define which functions are available to which task groups.
