• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_SUB_VALUATION807 - Time format for characteristic value & is not permitted ?

  The SAP error message CM_SUB_VALUATION807 indicates that there is an issue with the time format for a characteristic value in the context of classification or valuation in SAP. This error typically arises when the system expects a specific format for time-related data, but the provided value does not conform to that expected format.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Time Format: The characteristic value you are trying to enter may not be in the correct time format. For example, if the system expects a time in HH:MM:SS format, and you provide it in a different format (like HHMM or MM/DD/YYYY), it will trigger this error.
  Data Type Mismatch: The characteristic may be defined to accept only certain data types (e.g., time, date, etc.), and if you are trying to input a value that does not match the expected data type, this error will occur.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the characteristic in the classification system, where the expected format is not properly defined.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Input Format: Ensure that the time value you are entering adheres to the expected format. For example, if the system requires HH:MM:SS, make sure you are providing the value in that exact format.
  Review Characteristic Definition: Go to the classification system and check the definition of the characteristic. Ensure that it is set up to accept the type of data you are trying to input.
  Data Type Validation: Make sure that the data type of the characteristic is appropriate for the value you are trying to enter. If it is supposed to be a time, ensure that you are not trying to enter a date or a string.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the expected formats for the characteristic in question.
  Testing: If you have made changes to the configuration or the input format, test the input again to see if the error persists.

  User Exits or BAdIs: If the error is occurring in a custom development scenario, check if there are any user exits or BAdIs that might be affecting the input validation.
