• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/ODATA_API027 - You canÆt change values for some properties in entry: &1 &2. ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/ODATA_API027 typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when using OData services. This error indicates that you are trying to change certain properties of an entry that are not allowed to be modified. The message format includes placeholders &1 and &2, which usually represent the specific object type and the identifier of the entry you are trying to modify.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by attempting to update fields or properties that are either:
  
  Read-Only: Some fields in the EWM system are designed to be immutable after the initial creation of the entry. This is common for fields that are critical to the integrity of the data.
  Business Logic Restrictions: Certain business rules may prevent changes to specific fields based on the current status of the object (e.g., if the object is already processed or in a certain state).
  Incorrect OData Request: The OData request may be incorrectly formed, attempting to update fields that should not be updated.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Review the OData Request: Check the OData request you are sending to ensure that you are not attempting to modify read-only fields. Remove any properties from the request that are not allowed to be changed.
  
  
  Check Field Properties: Refer to the SAP EWM documentation or the data model to identify which fields are read-only for the specific object you are working with. This will help you understand which fields can be modified.
  
  
  Status Check: Ensure that the object you are trying to modify is in a state that allows for changes. If the object is locked or in a completed state, you may need to take additional steps to unlock or revert it to a state where changes are permitted.
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support: If you are unsure about the properties that can be modified or if you believe the error is occurring incorrectly, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  
  Testing: If possible, test the changes in a development or test environment before applying them in production to ensure that the changes do not lead to further issues.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP EWM Documentation: Review the official SAP documentation for Extended Warehouse Management to understand the data model and the properties of the objects you are working with.
  OData Services: Familiarize yourself with the OData services available in SAP EWM and their respective capabilities and limitations.
  Transaction Codes: Use relevant transaction codes (like /SCWM/PRDI for product data or /SCWM/ORDR for order data) to view and manage the entries directly in the SAP GUI, which may provide additional insights into the properties of the objects.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
