  SAP Message: W_CB396
  Text: Maintain User Status for setting of User Status
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message appears when you try to set or change a User Status in an SAP object (such as a sales order, service order, production order, etc.) but the system detects that the User Status profile or the specific User Status has not been maintained or assigned properly.
  In other words, the system expects that the User Status you want to set must be defined and assigned in the User Status profile for the object type you are working with. If this is missing or incomplete, the system issues this warning.
  
  Explanation:
  
  User Status is a customizable status that can be assigned to business objects to represent additional states beyond the standard system statuses.
  These statuses are maintained in User Status Profiles (transaction BS02).
