• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ISU_SEAL_IN070 - Status change from & to & not allowed ?

  The SAP error message ISU_SEAL_IN070, which states "Status change from & to & not allowed," typically occurs in the context of the SAP IS-U (Industry Solution for Utilities) module, particularly when dealing with seal management or meter reading processes. This error indicates that a specific status transition for a seal (or meter) is not permitted according to the system's configuration or business rules.
  Cause:
  
  
  Invalid Status Transition: The error usually arises when an attempt is made to change the status of a seal or meter to a state that is not allowed. For example, trying to change a seal from "Active" to "Inactive" directly may not be permitted if there are business rules that require certain conditions to be met first.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: The status transitions may not be properly configured in the system. This could be due to missing or incorrect settings in the status management configuration.
  
  
  Business Rules: There may be specific business rules or workflows defined in the system that restrict certain status changes based on the current state of the seal or meter.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Status Transition Rules: Review the allowed status transitions for seals in your SAP IS-U configuration. You can do this by checking the configuration settings in the SAP system (transaction codes like SPRO may be used to navigate to the relevant configuration).
  
  
  Review Current Status: Before attempting to change the status, check the current status of the seal or meter. Ensure that the transition you are trying to make is valid according to the defined rules.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines regarding seal management and status transitions to understand the allowed changes.
  
  
  Error Handling: If the status change is necessary, consider whether there are intermediate steps or status changes that need to be performed first. For example, you may need to change the status to a temporary state before reaching the desired final state.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue through configuration or by following the business rules, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP IS-U, such as:
  
  ISU_SEAL: For seal management.
  ISU_METER: For meter management.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to ISU and seal management that might address known issues or provide additional guidance.
  
  
  User Exits and BAdIs: If your organization has custom developments, check if there are any user exits or BAdIs that might affect the status change logic.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
