• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message USMD2165 - Change request &1 is completed and can no longer be modified ?

  The SAP error message USMD2165 indicates that a change request (CR) has been completed and is no longer available for modification. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) or similar applications where change requests are used to manage and track changes to master data.
  Cause:
  
  Change Request Status: The change request has reached a status that indicates it is completed. This means that all necessary approvals have been obtained, and the changes have been finalized.
  Workflow Completion: The workflow associated with the change request has been completed, and the request has been moved to a final state.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to prevent modifications to completed change requests to ensure data integrity and compliance with business processes.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Change Request Status: Check the status of the change request in the system. If it is marked as completed, you will not be able to modify it directly.
  Create a New Change Request: If modifications are necessary, you may need to create a new change request that references the completed one. This allows you to propose new changes without altering the finalized data.
  Consult with Your Administrator: If you believe that the change request should still be modifiable, consult with your SAP system administrator or support team. They may be able to provide insights into the specific configuration or workflow settings that are causing this restriction.
  Use Change Request Reversal (if applicable): In some cases, there may be a process to reverse or reopen a completed change request, depending on your organization's policies and the specific SAP configuration.
