  The SAP error message PSSC_BUFFER084 typically indicates that there is an issue when trying to change a record in a specific table. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to buffer management or data consistency issues in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Buffer Issues: The error may arise due to inconsistencies in the buffer where the data is stored temporarily. This can happen if the data in the buffer is not synchronized with the database.
  Lock Conflicts: Another common cause is that the record you are trying to change is locked by another user or process, preventing your changes from being applied.
  Data Integrity Violations: If the data being changed violates any integrity constraints (like foreign key constraints), the system will throw an error.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to change the record in the specified table.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the record you are trying to change. If you find a lock, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or contact the user who holds the lock.
  Buffer Refresh: You can refresh the buffer by using transaction code SM04 or SM12 to clear any inconsistencies. In some cases, a system restart or buffer refresh may be necessary.
  Data Consistency Check: Ensure that the data you are trying to change does not violate any integrity constraints. You may need to review the data in the related tables.
  Authorization Check: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the change. You can check this using transaction code SU53 after the error occurs to see if there are any authorization issues.
