  Causes of GR760 Error
  
  
  Key Figure Settings: The key figure may be set as "read-only" or may have specific settings that prevent changes. This is often the case for key figures that are derived or calculated based on other data.
  
  
  Planning Version: The planning version you are working with may have restrictions on certain key figures. For example, if the version is locked or if it is a historical version, changes may not be permitted.
  
  
  Data Locking: There may be data locking mechanisms in place that prevent changes to certain key figures while other processes are running.
  
  
  User Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to change the key figure. This can be due to role-based access controls in SAP.
  
  
  Data Integrity Rules: There may be data integrity rules or business logic that prevent changes to certain key figures to maintain consistency in the planning process.
