How to fix this error?

An automatic consistency check does not take place, if you assign an
interface format to the target file layout, that does not correspond to
the assigned interface format of the target file layout.
You should thus check that fields, tables and so on, refered to in the
file layout also exist in the newly assigned interface format.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 57232 - The assigned interface format has been changed (check consistency!) ?

  The SAP error message 57232, "The assigned interface format has been changed (check consistency!)", typically occurs in the context of SAP systems when there is a mismatch or inconsistency in the interface format assigned to a particular object, such as a function module, BAPI, or IDoc.
