WB2B475
- Closure Status Code 'Closed' for new items not allowed ?The SAP error message WB2B475, which indicates "Closure Status Code 'Closed' for new items not allowed," typically arises in the context of SAP's logistics or materials management modules, particularly when dealing with item master data or procurement processes. This error suggests that the system is trying to process a new item that has a closure status of 'Closed,' which prevents any further transactions or modifications.

- Reopen the Item: If the item should be active, you can change its status back to 'Active' or 'Open' using the appropriate transaction (e.g., MM02 for changing material master data).
- Create a New Item: If the item is meant to be closed permanently, consider creating a new item with a different material number that reflects the current requirements.
- Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to item status management and ensure they align with your business processes.
