  SAP Error Message:
  WZRE_ALE_MONITOR2052
  
  Text: IDoc &: Change not allowed (Status &)
  
  Meaning / Cause:
  This error occurs when there is an attempt to change or edit an IDoc that is currently in a status where modifications are not permitted. Each IDoc status represents a stage in the processing lifecycle, and certain statuses lock the IDoc to prevent changes to maintain data integrity and consistency.
  For example, if an IDoc is already processed successfully (status 53) or is in a status indicating it is being processed or has been dispatched, SAP does not allow changes to the IDoc data.
  
  Common Causes:
  
  Trying to manually edit an IDoc in transaction WE02, WE19, or other tools when the IDoc is in a status that disallows changes.
  Custom programs or user exits attempting to modify IDocs after they have been dispatched or processed.
  ALE monitoring or reprocessing tools trying to change IDocs without proper status checks.
  Incorrect handling of IDocs in error or processed status.
  
  
  Solution / How to Resolve:
  
  
  Check the IDoc Status:
  
  Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to display the IDoc and check its current status.
  Identify if the status is one that disallows changes (e.g., 03, 12, 30, 53, etc.).
  
  
  
  Understand the Status Meaning:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or transaction WE60 to understand the meaning of the status code.
  Status 53 means "IDoc processed successfully" and cannot be changed.
  Status 64 means "IDoc ready for dispatch," etc.
  
  
  
  Avoid Changing Processed IDocs:
  
  If the IDoc is already processed successfully, do not attempt to change it.
  Instead, create a new IDoc if changes are needed.
  
  
  
  Reprocess or Recreate IDoc:
  
  If the IDoc is in error status (e.g., 51), you may reprocess it using transaction BD87.
  If changes are necessary, consider deleting the IDoc (if allowed) and recreating it.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Code:
  
  If custom programs or user exits are trying to modify IDocs, ensure they check the IDoc status before attempting changes.
  Implement proper status checks to avoid this error.
  
  
  
  ALE Monitoring:
  
  In ALE monitoring tools, ensure that the system does not attempt to change IDocs in locked statuses.
  Use standard SAP tools and follow SAP best practices for IDoc handling.
