  The SAP error message /ACCGO/CAS_FLLW_MSG617 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the weight type defined in a contract and the weight type associated with a load. Specifically, the weight type in the contract is higher than the weight type of the load, which is causing the error.
  Cause:
  
  Weight Type Mismatch: The weight type defined in the contract (e.g., contract &2/&3) is set to a higher value than what is defined for the load (type &4). This could be due to incorrect data entry or configuration.
