SV059
- The selected entry is still in its original state ?The SAP error message SV059, which states "The selected entry is still in its original state," typically occurs in scenarios where a user is attempting to perform an action on a document or entry that has not yet been changed or processed. This error is often encountered in various SAP modules, such as Materials Management (MM) or Sales and Distribution (SD), when trying to modify or delete an entry that is still in its initial state.
Cause:
- Unchanged Document: The document or entry you are trying to modify or delete has not been changed from its original state. This means that the system does not allow modifications because it expects some form of change to have occurred.
- Status Restrictions: The entry may be in a status that does not allow for the action you are trying to perform. For example, if the document is still in a draft state or has not been fully processed.
- Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the error can also be related to user permissions. If the user does not have the necessary authorizations to change the document, the system may prevent any modifications.
Solution:
- Check Document Status: Verify the status of the document or entry. If it is still in its original state, you may need to make some changes to it before you can proceed with the action you are trying to perform.
- Make Necessary Changes: If applicable, make any required changes to the document. This could involve adding information, changing quantities, or updating other fields.
- Review User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to perform the action. If you suspect that authorization is an issue, contact your SAP security administrator to review your access rights.
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance related to the module you are working in. This can provide insights into the expected workflow and any prerequisites for the action you are trying to perform.
- Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP Notes for any known issues related to this error message.
