# Transaction is in immutable state

You are trying to update a transaction which is not in the draft or ready state.

---

## Example

```json
{
  "error": {
    "type": "request_error",
    "code": "transaction_immutable",
    "detail": "Cannot update immutable transaction",
    "documentation_url": "https://developer.paddle.com/errors/transactions/transaction_immutable"
  },
  "meta": {
    "request_id": "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
  }
}
```

## Details

| Attribute | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Status code | 400 |
| Error code | `transaction_immutable` |
| Error message | Cannot update immutable transaction |

## Common causes

- Transaction is immutable, as it has already been completed, billed or canceled

## Common solutions

- Immutable transactions cannot be modified. However, adjustments can be created for them (although this is use-case-specific).
