CNV_20100173 - Details

• The SAP error message CNV_20100173 indicates that there is a mismatch in the significant lengths of the target Chart of Accounts (CoA) during a data migration or conversion process. This typically occurs when the mapping of account numbers between the source and target CoA does not align correctly in terms of their lengths, which can lead to issues in data consistency and integrity.
  
  Cause:
  
  Different Lengths: The source and target CoA account numbers have different lengths. For example, if the source account number is 10 characters long and the target account number is 12 characters long, this discrepancy can trigger the error.
  Mapping Configuration: The mapping configuration may not have been set up correctly, leading to inconsistencies in how account numbers are interpreted between the source and target systems.
  Data Quality Issues: There may be issues with the data quality in the source system, such as leading zeros or padding that are not accounted
