• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_AT014 - Enter at least a maintenance status ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_AT014: Enter at least a maintenance status
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to perform a maintenance-related action (such as creating or changing a maintenance order, notification, or task list) without specifying a required maintenance status. In SAP Plant Maintenance (PM), maintenance objects (orders, notifications, equipment, etc.) must have a valid maintenance status to indicate their current processing state (e.g., Created, Released, In Process, Completed).
  The system expects at least one maintenance status to be entered to proceed, but none was provided, hence the error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  When creating or changing maintenance orders or notifications without entering a maintenance status.
  When trying to save or process maintenance documents that require a status but none is assigned.
  Possibly during status changes or when the system checks for mandatory status fields.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Enter a valid maintenance status:  
  
  Go to the status tab or status field in the maintenance order, notification, or relevant object.
  Enter at least one valid maintenance status (e.g., CRTD - Created, REL - Released).
  Save the document again.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing for Status Profiles:  
  
  Use transaction BS02 to check status profiles assigned to the maintenance object.
  Ensure that the status profile requires at least one status and that the statuses are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Verify User Input:  
  
  Make sure the user interface or screen variant used for data entry includes the status field.
  If using custom transactions or screens, ensure the status field is not hidden or bypassed.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:  
  
  Sometimes, users may not have authorization to set or change statuses.
  Verify user roles and authorizations related to status changes (authorization object I_ORDER for orders, I_NOTIFICATION for notifications).

  Summary:
