  • What causes this issue?

    During blending of the source packages at least two different
    (conversion or aggregate) routines were assigned to the same field.
    When two different conversion packages are blended together and both of
    them indicate that they are configured to convert the same field of the
    same table then conflict occurs (as long as these two packages use
    different routines for conversion). This can happen for example if the
    table field contain some non-transparently stored data ("many values" in
    one field).

    System Response

    Packages cannot be blended together.

    source packages are meant to be executed together contact SAP support.
