• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IV020 - Operation mode ?

  SAP Error Message: WZRE_IV020
  
  Text: Operation mode
  
  Cause:
  The error message WZRE_IV020 typically occurs in the context of SAP Treasury and Risk Management (TRM), specifically within the In-House Cash (IHC) or Payment Medium Workbench (PMW) processes. It indicates that the system has encountered an issue related to the operation mode setting during payment processing or file generation.
  The operation mode in SAP TRM defines how payment files or communication with banks are handled, such as test mode, production mode, or simulation mode. If the operation mode is not correctly set or is missing in the configuration, the system cannot proceed with the payment run or file generation, triggering this error.
  
  Common Causes:
  
  The operation mode is not maintained or incorrectly configured in the payment medium or payment method settings.
  Missing or incorrect assignment of operation mode in the customizing for payment medium formats.
  Attempting to run a payment or generate a file in a mode that is not supported or allowed by the system configuration.
  User or process is trying to execute a payment run without specifying the operation mode.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Operation Mode Configuration:
  
  Go to the customizing path for payment medium or payment method configuration:
  
  For Payment Medium Workbench (PMW):
  
  SPRO ? Financial Supply Chain Management ? Treasury and Risk Management ? Payment Medium Workbench ? Define Operation Modes
  
  
  Ensure that the operation modes (e.g., Test, Production, Simulation) are properly defined.
  
  
  
  Assign Operation Mode Correctly:
  
  Verify that the operation mode is assigned to the relevant payment method or payment medium format.
  Check the assignment in the customizing for the payment method or payment medium format:
  
  SPRO ? Financial Supply Chain Management ? Treasury and Risk Management ? Payment Medium Workbench ? Assign Operation Mode to Payment Medium Format
  
  
  
  
  
  During Payment Run:
  
  When executing the payment run or file generation, ensure that the correct operation mode is selected.
  If the operation mode is a mandatory field in the payment run screen, do not leave it blank.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  If you are testing, use the test operation mode.
  For production runs, use the production operation mode.
  
  
  
  Authorization:
  
  Ensure the user has the necessary authorizations to execute payment runs in the selected operation mode.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Operation Mode controls how the payment files are processed and whether they are sent to the bank or just simulated.
  This setting helps prevent accidental transmission of payment files during testing.
  The error message is a safeguard to ensure that the payment process is executed under the correct operational conditions.
