• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABP_CD_INFO_MSG009 - Info container is processed in simulation mode ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ABP_CD_INFO_MSG009 indicates that the info container is being processed in simulation mode. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Business Application Programming (ABAP) or when working with specific modules that involve data processing, such as SAP PM (Plant Maintenance) or SAP PS (Project System).
  Cause:
  
  Simulation Mode: The system is set to run in simulation mode, which means that it is not executing any actual changes or updates to the database. This is often used for testing purposes to see what would happen without making any real changes.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the transaction or program you are using may have been set to simulate mode intentionally.
  User Permissions: The user executing the transaction may not have the necessary permissions to perform the actual operation, leading the system to default to simulation mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Simulation Settings: Review the settings in the transaction or program you are using. Look for any options that specify whether to run in simulation mode or actual mode. Change the setting to execute in actual mode if needed.
  User Permissions: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform the operation. If not, contact your SAP administrator to adjust the user roles and permissions.
  Review Documentation: Consult the relevant SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction or program to understand how to switch from simulation to actual processing.
  Testing Environment: If you are in a testing environment, confirm whether you should be in simulation mode or if you need to switch to a production-like environment for actual processing.
