    SAP Error Message:
    WRPLCHK006: Simulation only is taking place
    
    
    Cause: This message appears during the work scheduling or production order processing in SAP when the system is running in simulation mode rather than executing actual postings or updates. In other words, the system is only simulating the process to show what would happen if the transaction were executed, but no real changes are made to the database. This typically happens because the user or the system has selected or defaulted to a "simulation" or "test run" mode in the transaction or report. It is a safeguard to prevent unintended postings during planning or testing phases. When does it occur? During production order confirmations or scheduling runs. When running certain planning or scheduling transactions with the "Simulation" checkbox selected. When executing reports or transactions that have a simulation mode to preview results without updating data.
    Solution: Check the Simulation Flag: In the transaction or report screen, look for a checkbox or option
