• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IV023 - Only active operations are processed ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZRE_IV023: Only active operations are processed
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to process or post a transaction involving a production order or process order operation that is not active. In SAP Production Planning (PP) or Plant Maintenance (PM), operations within an order can have different statuses such as Active, Technically Completed, Closed, or Deleted. The system only allows processing (e.g., confirmations, goods movements) for operations that are currently active.
  If you attempt to confirm or post goods movement for an operation that is already technically completed or closed, the system will raise this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During order confirmation (CO11N, CO15, etc.) when confirming an operation that is not active.
  During goods movement postings related to an operation that is not active.
  When trying to perform activities on operations that have been technically completed or closed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Operation Status:
  
  Go to the order (e.g., using transaction CO03 for production orders).
  Navigate to the operations tab.
  Verify the status of the operation you are trying to process.
  
  
  
  Reactivate Operation (if applicable):
  
  If the operation was technically completed but needs to be reopened, you can reverse the technical completion.
  Use transaction CO02 (Change Order) and select the operation.
  Remove the technical completion indicator or reverse the technical completion using the appropriate function (e.g., via confirmation reversal or order change).
  
  
  
  Process Only Active Operations:
  
  Ensure that you only confirm or post goods movements for operations that are currently active.
  If the operation is closed or deleted, you cannot process it further.
  
  
  
  Check for Customizing or User Exits:
  
  Sometimes, custom validations or user exits might enforce stricter checks on operation status.
  Review any custom code if the standard behavior seems overridden.

  Summary:
