  The SAP error message MM_CCM018, which states "Cancelled by user," typically occurs in the context of materials management processes, particularly when a user cancels an operation or transaction in the system. This message is not an error in the traditional sense but rather an indication that the user has chosen to cancel a process.
  Cause:
  
  User Action: The most common cause is that the user intentionally canceled the operation, such as a transaction or a process in the SAP system.

  Solution:
  
  Re-initiate the Process: If the cancellation was unintentional, the user can simply re-initiate the process or transaction that was canceled.
  Check User Actions: Review the steps taken before the cancellation to ensure that the user did not inadvertently cancel the operation.
  Review Permissions: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform the action. If not, consult with your SAP administrator to adjust the permissions.
  System Settings: If the cancellation is due to system settings or timeouts, consult with your SAP Basis or system administrator to review and adjust the relevant configurations.
