I've had this happen in my game before. You have be in Live mode before testingcheats can be used.

How To: Use Testing Cheats -

1. At Sims 4 Main Menu, choose the family you want to play. Press Pause after getting into live mode.

2. Press Shift-Ctrl-C all at the same time.
3. Enter testingcheats on or testingcheats true, press enter.
-- Once this is enabled, it should show you a message in the cheat console that the cheats are enabled.
4. Copy or paste the desired cheat, press enter.
5. Press the ESC key or Shift-Ctrl-C again to exit the cheat console.

If that doesn't work, try deleting the localthumbcache.package out of the Sims 4 folder to troubleshoot and try using testingcheats again.
