  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IAM/OBJECT322 - Activity &1; Status '&2' not possible, as current status is '&3' ?

    The SAP error message /IAM/OBJECT322 typically indicates that an operation you are trying to perform on an object (like a business partner, user, or other entity) is not allowed due to its current status. The message format is as follows:

    • Activity &1: This indicates the action you are trying to perform (e.g., "Change", "Delete", etc.).
    • Status '&2': This is the status you are trying to set or the status that is required for the action.
    • Current status is '&3': This shows the current status of the object, which is preventing the action from being completed.

    Cause

    The error occurs because the object you are trying to modify is in a status that does not allow the requested action. For example, if you are trying to change a business partner's status to "Active" but the current status is "Blocked", the system will prevent this action.

    Solution

    To resolve this error, you need to:

    1. Check the Current Status: Review the current status of the object you are trying to modify. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or using the appropriate report to view the object's details.

    2. Determine Allowed Actions: Understand what actions are permissible for the current status. This information can often be found in the documentation or by consulting with your SAP administrator.

    3. Change the Status: If you need to perform the action, you may need to change the object's status to one that allows the desired operation. This might involve:

      • Reverting the status to a previous state.
      • Completing any required processes that would allow the status to change.
      • Consulting with your business process owner or SAP support team to understand the implications of changing the status.
    4. Perform the Action Again: Once the status has been changed to an appropriate one, attempt to perform the action again.

    Related Information

    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for specific details on the object and its status management.

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.
