• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMK124 - The delivered catalog can only be changed by SAP ?

  The SAP error message UMK124, which states "The delivered catalog can only be changed by SAP," typically occurs in the context of using SAP's catalog management features, particularly when dealing with standard catalogs that are delivered by SAP.
  
  Cause:
  This error arises when a user attempts to modify a standard catalog that is part of the SAP standard delivery. SAP restricts changes to these catalogs to ensure system integrity and consistency. The standard catalogs are designed to be used as-is, and any modifications to them could lead to issues with system updates, support, and overall functionality.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you have a few options:
  
  
  Create a Custom Catalog: Instead of modifying the standard catalog, you can create a custom catalog that meets your specific requirements. This allows you to tailor the catalog to your needs without violating SAP's restrictions.
  
  
  Use Customization Options: Check if there are any customization options available within the SAP system
