How To Fix BUX_EEW008 - Change the time constraint only after a check

BUX_EEW008 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: BUX_EEW - Message Class for generic wizard for BP ABA 7.0

• Message number: 008

• Message text: Change the time constraint only after a check

You are trying to change the time constraint type of an existing
extension. SAP recommends that you do <ZH>not</> do this, as it may lead
to inconsistencies in the system and may have serious consequences.
However, if you wish to change the time constraint type, run the
<LS>Consistency Check</> report (BUX_EXTNSN_CONSISTENCY_CHECK) to check
for inconsistencies in the extension. If the extension has been
transported, run the report in all dependent systems including the
production system. Only after carrying out the inconsistency check,
should you change the time constraint type of an extension.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

BUX_EEW008 - Details

• The SAP error message BUX_EEW008, which states "Change the time constraint only after a check," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Business Workflow or when dealing with time constraints in the context of planning or scheduling. This error indicates that there is an issue with changing the time constraint of a task or activity without first performing a necessary check.
  
  Cause:
  
  Time Constraint Violation: The error usually arises when you attempt to change a time constraint (like start or end dates) without ensuring that the new values do not violate existing dependencies or rules.
  Workflow Configuration: In workflows, certain tasks may have predefined time constraints that must be adhered to. Changing these constraints without validation can lead to inconsistencies.
  Missing Checks: The system requires that certain checks (like availability of resources, dependencies, etc.) are performed before allowing changes to time constraints.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Perform Required Checks: Before changing the time constraint, ensure that you perform all
