  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/FDPDAHHM016 Operation possible only in status 'Planned' (CO master data generation) typically occurs when you are trying to perform an operation that is restricted to a specific status in the SAP system, particularly in the context of CO (Controlling) master data generation.
  Cause:
  This error indicates that the operation you are attempting to execute can only be performed when the status of the relevant object (such as a project, order, or cost center) is set to 'Planned'. If the object is in a different status (e.g., 'Released', 'Completed', etc.), the system will prevent the operation from being executed to maintain data integrity and ensure that only valid operations are performed.

  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status: Verify the current status of the object you are trying to work with. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or report that displays the status of the object.

  Reversing any previous operations that changed the status.
  Using specific transactions or functions in SAP to set the status back to 'Planned'.
