  The SAP error message /ACCGO/CAS_MSG459 indicates that there is a problem with the date configuration for a lien ID in the system. Specifically, the error states that the end date is earlier than the effective date, which is not a valid configuration.
  Cause:

  Correct the Data: If you find that the end date is indeed earlier than the effective date, update the end date to a valid date that meets the requirement.
  
  
  Review Related Transactions: If the lien is part of a larger transaction or contract, ensure that all related dates are consistent and valid.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct dates to use, consult the relevant documentation or guidelines for managing liens in your organization.
  
  
  Test Changes: After making the necessary corrections, test the changes in a development or test environment if possible, before applying them to the production environment.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If the issue persists or if you are unable to resolve it, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
