The SAP error message
/CFG/BCLM020 Pushing down Activity &1 from Next to Previous
typically occurs in the context of Business Configuration (BC) or when working with the Business Configuration Management (BCM) tool in SAP. This message indicates that there is an issue with the sequence of activities in a configuration project, where an activity is being pushed down in the sequence from a "Next" status to a "Previous" status.Cause:
- Activity Sequence Violation: The error usually arises when there is an attempt to change the status of an activity that is not allowed due to the defined sequence of activities in the configuration project.
- Dependencies: There may be dependencies between activities that require certain activities to be completed before others can be moved or modified.
- Configuration Lock: The activity might be locked or in a state that does not allow it to be pushed down in the sequence.
Solution:
- Check Activity Status: Review the status of the activity in question. Ensure that all prerequisite activities are completed before attempting to change the status of the current activity.
- Review Dependencies: Look for any dependencies or prerequisites that might be preventing the activity from being pushed down. Ensure that all necessary conditions are met.
- Adjust Sequence: If the activity needs to be moved, consider whether it can be completed or if the sequence of activities needs to be adjusted in a way that complies with the configuration rules.
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on managing activity sequences in your version of SAP.
- Contact Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for assistance, as they may have more context on the specific configuration and setup.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
