How To Fix CC146 - Field & requires length &, but field length is &

CC146 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CC - ECM: Messages

• Message number: 146

• Message text: Field & requires length &, but field length is &

What causes this issue?

You want to do a date shift.
When you do a date shift, the valid-from date for all effectivity
periods of all linked objects is re-calculated by the system.
This changes the sequence of effectivity periods on &V1& for BOM &V2&,
item &V3&.

System Response

The system checks whether the BOM is still consistent. The BOM is not
consistent if, for example, the BOM has already been changed with a
change number with the same valid-from date as the new valid-from date
you define in your date shift.

How to fix this error?

Since your date shift violates the consistency of the BOM named above,
you cannot carry out the date shift.
