The SAP error message
/IAM/OBJECT340 &2 change not possible to &1 (read other error messages)
typically indicates that there is an issue with changing an object in the Identity Access Management (IAM) module of SAP. This error can arise due to various reasons, and understanding the context is crucial for troubleshooting.Possible Causes:
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to make changes to the specified object.
- Object Locking: The object might be locked by another user or process, preventing changes.
- Configuration Errors: There may be configuration issues within the IAM settings that are preventing the change.
- Data Integrity Issues: The data associated with the object may not meet the required integrity constraints, leading to a failure in the change process.
- System Errors: There could be underlying system errors or bugs that are causing the issue.
Solutions:
- Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the appropriate authorizations to change the object. This can be done by reviewing the user's roles and permissions in the IAM module.
- Unlock the Object: If the object is locked, identify the user or process that has locked it and request that they unlock it. You can also use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
- Review Configuration: Check the IAM configuration settings to ensure that everything is set up correctly. Look for any inconsistencies or misconfigurations that could be causing the issue.
- Data Validation: Validate the data associated with the object to ensure it meets all necessary criteria. Correct any data integrity issues that may exist.

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.
