  The SAP error message:
  WGDS_PROCESS155: Only item with Processing state "New" or "Erroneous" can be processed
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to process a Work Distribution Service (WDS) item that is not in the correct processing state. Specifically, the system only allows processing of items that are in the "New" or "Erroneous" state. If the item is already processed, in a completed state, or in any other state, the system will prevent further processing and raise this error.
  In other words, the item you are trying to process has a status that does not allow re-processing or further action.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Processing states in WDS control the lifecycle of an item.
  Valid states for processing are:
  New: Item has just been created and is ready for processing.
  Erroneous: Item processing failed previously and can be retried.
  
  
  Other states like Processed, Completed, or Cancelled indicate that the item is no longer eligible for processing.
