  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC074 - Value of (&1) is not conform to type time ?

    The SAP error message /BOBF/TOOLS_CC074 Value of (&1) is not conform to type time typically indicates that there is an issue with a value being passed to a field that is expected to be of type "time." This error can occur in various scenarios, such as when working with Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) or when handling data in ABAP programs.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Format: The value being passed does not conform to the expected time format. For example, if the expected format is HH:MM:SS, and the value is in a different format (like HHMM or HH:MM), this error will occur.
    2. Invalid Value: The value may be outside the valid range for time (e.g., hours greater than 23 or minutes/seconds greater than 59).
    3. Data Type Mismatch: The data type of the variable being used does not match the expected time data type in the BOPF or database table.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Value Format: Ensure that the value being passed is in the correct time format (HH:MM:SS). If you are constructing the time value programmatically, make sure to format it correctly.
    2. Validate the Value: Before passing the value, validate it to ensure it falls within the acceptable range for time values.
    3. Data Type Consistency: Ensure that the variable or field you are using to store the time value is of the correct data type. If necessary, convert the value to the appropriate type before passing it.
    4. Debugging: If you are unsure where the error is occurring, use debugging tools to trace the value being passed and identify where it deviates from the expected format.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Documentation: Refer to the SAP Help Portal for documentation on BOPF and data types.
    • ABAP Data Types: Familiarize yourself with ABAP data types, especially those related to time, such as TIME and TIMESTAMP.
    • Error Handling: Implement error handling in your code to catch such issues early and provide meaningful messages to users or logs.

    If the problem persists after checking these aspects, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP community for further assistance.
