• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UAMO034 - No changes possible (application is in display mode) ?

  The SAP error message UAMO034: No changes possible (application is in display mode) typically occurs when a user attempts to make changes to a document or record that is currently set to display mode. This means that the application is not allowing any modifications to the data because it is not in edit mode.
  Cause:
  
  Display Mode: The application or transaction is opened in display mode, which restricts any changes to the data.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to edit the document or record.
  System Settings: Certain configurations or settings in the SAP system may enforce display-only access for specific users or roles.
  Document Status: The document or record may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., completed, approved, or locked).
  
  Solution:
  
  Switch to Edit Mode: If you have the necessary permissions, try to switch the application to edit mode. This can usually be done by selecting an "Edit" button or option in the menu.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that your user role has the necessary authorizations to make changes. You may need to contact your SAP security administrator to verify or update your permissions.
  Review Document Status: Check the status of the document or record you are trying to edit. If it is locked or completed, you may need to follow the appropriate process to unlock or change its status.
  Use the Correct Transaction: Make sure you are using the correct transaction code that allows editing. Some transactions are specifically designed for display purposes only.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance related to the transaction you are using.
