• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRB024 - Enter a different item status. Only status &1 allowed ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRB024 - Enter a different item status. Only status &1 allowed
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to enter or process an item with a status that is not allowed in the current context or transaction. The system expects the item status to be a specific value (displayed as &1 in the message), but the entered status differs from this allowed status.
  For example, in inventory management or goods movement transactions, certain item statuses are restricted based on the business rules or configuration. If you enter an item status that is not permitted for the particular movement type, document type, or process step, SAP throws this error.
  
  Typical Scenarios:
  
  Posting goods movements where only certain item statuses are allowed.
  Processing stock transfers or reservations with restricted item statuses.
  Quality management processes where only specific statuses are valid for inspection or usage.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Allowed Item Status:
  
  Review the message to identify the allowed status (&1 will be replaced by the actual status code in the system message). Ensure that the item status you are entering matches this allowed status.
  
  
  Correct the Item Status:
  
  Change the item status in your transaction to the allowed status. This might involve:
  
  Selecting the correct status from the dropdown or input field.
  Adjusting the item master data or stock status if you have authorization.
  Using the correct movement type or document type that permits the desired status.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If you believe the allowed status is incorrect or too restrictive:
  
  Check the customizing settings in IMG related to item statuses for the relevant module (e.g., Inventory Management, Quality Management).
  Verify the status profile and allowed statuses for the transaction or movement type.
  Consult with your SAP functional consultant to adjust the configuration if business requirements have changed.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Sometimes, the error may be due to missing authorizations to use certain item statuses. Verify your user roles and authorizations.
