• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY153 - View &1 is Read-Only ?

  The SAP error message S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY153, which states "View &1 is Read-Only," typically occurs when a user attempts to make changes to a configuration view that is not editable due to authorization restrictions or because the view is set to read-only mode.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to edit the configuration view. This can happen if the user lacks the required roles or permissions in the SAP system.
  View Configuration: The view itself may be configured as read-only in the system settings, preventing any modifications.
  Transport Request: If the view is part of a transport request that is not yet released, it may be locked for editing.
  System Status: The system might be in a state (like maintenance mode) that restricts changes to certain views.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to edit the view. This can be done by checking the user's roles and permissions in transaction code SU53 or by consulting with the security team.
  View Settings: Verify the configuration settings of the view. If it is intentionally set to read-only, you may need to consult with the functional team or the person responsible for the configuration to understand why it is set this way.
  Release Transport Requests: If the view is part of a transport request, ensure that the transport is released and that the changes are imported into the system.
  System Status: Check if the system is in a maintenance mode or if there are any ongoing activities that might restrict changes. If so, wait until the maintenance is completed.
  Use Correct Transaction: Make sure you are using the correct transaction code for editing the view. Some views may have specific transactions that allow editing.
  
  Related Information:
