  The SAP error message CME_DTYPE014 indicates that there is an issue with the value check in a data element or field where multiple forms of value checks have been specified, but only one is allowed. This typically occurs in the context of data validation or field definitions in SAP, particularly when working with ABAP or data dictionary objects.
