• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHPRC_COD_COMMON055 - Composition is not editable because read from history XML ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHPRC_COD_COMMON055 indicates that a composition (such as a product or material) is not editable because it has been read from a history XML file. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with product compliance and regulatory data.
  Cause:
  
  Read from History XML: The composition you are trying to edit has been loaded from a historical XML file, which is often used for compliance reporting or auditing purposes. When data is read from such a file, it is treated as read-only to maintain the integrity of historical records.
  Data Integrity: The system is designed to prevent modifications to historical data to ensure that compliance and regulatory information remains accurate and unaltered.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Source of Data: Verify if the composition was indeed loaded from a history XML file. If you need to make changes, you may need to create a new version of the composition rather than editing the historical data directly.
  Create a New Composition: If modifications are necessary, consider creating a new composition or version that reflects the changes you want to make. This way, you maintain the integrity of the historical data while allowing for updates.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help resources related to the EHS module for specific guidelines on handling historical data and compositions.
  Contact SAP Support: If you believe this message is appearing in error or if you need further assistance, consider reaching out to SAP support for guidance tailored to your specific situation.
