  The SAP error message NSDM_MESSAGES055 indicates that there is an issue with changing the batch status and the valuation type simultaneously in a single transaction. This error typically arises in the context of batch management in SAP, particularly when dealing with materials that have batch management enabled.
  Cause:

  Make the necessary changes to the batch status and save the transaction.
  
  
  
  Change the Valuation Type:
  
  After successfully changing the batch status, you can then proceed to change the valuation type.
  Again, use the appropriate transaction (like MSC2N or MM02) to change the valuation type for the same batch and save the changes.
