    To resolve the error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Object Status: Review the current status of the object you are trying to edit. If it is in a status that does not allow changes (like 'Completed' or 'Closed'), you may need to change the status back to a modifiable state if business processes allow it.
    2. Review Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to the object. You may need to contact your SAP security administrator to verify your authorizations.
    3. Consult Documentation: Refer to your organization's documentation or SAP help resources to understand the specific statuses and their implications for the object you are working with.
