Message text: No uniform result typing is possible
The return values of the WHEN conditions of the CASE expressions differ
in length.
The system is unable to determine any uniform result typing for the CASE
expression.
This message can have one of the following meanings:
If it is necessary to type the CASE expression completely, you must
ensure that all return values of the WHEN conditions have the same
length, output length and number of decimal places.
If it is not necessary to type the CASE expression completely, you can
ignore the message.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

The SAP error message BRF254 ("No uniform result typing is possible") typically occurs in the context of Business Rule Framework (BRF+) when there is an inconsistency in the data types of the results being returned by a rule or decision table. This can happen when the rules are expected to return a single type of result, but the actual results vary in type.
Cause:
Inconsistent Data Types: The rules or expressions defined in the BRF+ application may return different data types (e.g., a mix of strings, integers, or other types) which cannot be unified into a single type.
Decision Table Configuration: If a decision table is configured to return different types based on the conditions, it can lead to this error.
Function Return Types: If a function is defined to return a specific type but the logic within the function leads to different types being returned, this can trigger the error.
