Problems when creating, updating or deleting single sales order items
Error message
When you develop an application that consumes the OData sample service GWSAMPLE_BASIC to create and maintain sales orders or sales order items you might get the following error messages:

SEPM_BO_COMMON/013
Create is not allowed because of property value
/IWBEP/GWS/010
Execution of EPM 'Sales Order Line Item - Set-Note' was not successful

The likely root cause is that the status of the sales order is not 'N' (=New).
A sales order of the demo data model can only be maintained if the status is
If it has one of the following statuses:
- P In Progress
- C Closed
- X Canceled
you will get one of the aforementioned error messages.
