/ISDFPS/ME_CA_MB004
- This is only a simulation run; no database changes ?The SAP error message /ISDFPS/ME_CA_MB004 indicates that the system is currently in a simulation mode, meaning that no actual changes will be made to the database. This is a common scenario in SAP when you are running a transaction or report that is designed to simulate the effects of an action without committing any changes to the database.
Cause: Simulation Mode: The transaction or report you are executing is set to run in simulation mode. This is often used for testing purposes to see what would happen if the transaction were executed without actually making any changes. Configuration Settings: Certain configurations or parameters may be set to enforce simulation mode for specific transactions or processes.
Solution: Check Transaction Settings: If you intend to perform an actual update, ensure that you are not in simulation mode. Look for any options or checkboxes in the transaction screen that indicate "Simulation" or "Test Run" and uncheck them. Review User
