  The SAP error message CNV_PE013 indicates that there are changed objects in the system that have not yet been saved. This typically occurs during a data migration or conversion process, particularly when using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or other data migration tools.
  Cause:
  
  Unsaved Changes: The most common cause of this error is that there are changes made to objects (like tables, structures, or configurations) that have not been saved in the system. This can happen if you are working in a transaction and have not yet saved your changes.
  Inconsistent State: The system may be in an inconsistent state due to unsaved changes, which can lead to issues during the migration process.

  Solution:
  
  Save Changes: Ensure that all changes made to the objects are saved. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction and saving your work.
  Check for Unsaved Objects: Use transaction codes like SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check for any unsaved changes in the objects you are working with.
  Review Transport Requests: If you are working with transport requests, ensure that all changes are included in the transport and that the transport is released.
  Restart the Process: After saving all changes, restart the migration or conversion process to see if the error persists.
  Check for Locks: Ensure that there are no locks on the objects you are trying to modify or migrate. You can use transaction SM12 to check for locks.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE80, SE11, SM12, and others that can help you manage and check the status of your objects.
