How To Fix WZ405 - Object type not released

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WZ - Workflow: Model objects

• Message number: 405

• Message text: Object type not released

What causes this issue?

You have specified an object type that is not released. It is not
worthwhile creating another event or a subtype for this object type,
because the object type cannot be used without being released.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Release object type and start processing again, or specify another
object type.
ACHTUNG!
With an object type supplied by SAP, it is possible that individual
component parts of the object type (methods, attributes, etc) are only
modeled. You can use the object type after release, but correct
operation of the individual component parts is not guaranteed.
