• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY235 - View &1 is Read Only ?

  The SAP error message S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY235 with the description "View &1 is Read Only" typically occurs when a user attempts to make changes to a configuration view that is set to read-only status. This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for finding a solution.
  Causes:
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to modify the configuration. The user role may not include the required permissions for the specific view.
  
  
  View Status: The view itself may be set to read-only due to system settings or because it is part of a standard configuration that should not be altered.
  
  
  Transport Request: If the view is part of a transport request that has not been released or is in a different status, it may be locked for changes.
  
  
  System Configuration: The system may be in a specific mode (like a production environment) where changes are restricted to prevent unintended modifications.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to modify the view. This can be done by checking the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU53 or PFCG.
  
  
  Review View Settings: Check if the view is indeed set to read-only. This can be done in the configuration settings. If it is a standard SAP view, consider whether it is appropriate to modify it.
  
  
  Release Transport Requests: If the view is part of a transport request, ensure that the transport is released. You can check the status of transport requests in transaction SE09 or SE10.
  
  
  Change System Mode: If the system is in a mode that restricts changes (like production), consider whether you need to switch to a development or testing environment to make the necessary changes.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific view to understand its intended use and any restrictions on modifications.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot determine the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
