What causes this issue?

You want to change the valid-from date of a change master.
You cannot do this, because the consistency of at least one change
object (for example, BOM, or routing) is violated or the object(s) are
currently locked.
The following reasons for inconsistency may apply:
A BOM has already been changed using a change number with the same
valid-from date as the selected date &V1&.
A routing is not valid on the selected date &V1&.

System Response

The system produces a message log listing the change objects that
prevent a date shift.

How to fix this error?

If you confirm this message, you can enter a new date in the <LS>Date
shift</> dialog box or cancel the date shift function.
If you cancel the date shift function, you see a pushbutton for the
special message log for the change objects that prevent a date shift.
