• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_PE_CHECK086 - TRule imp. param &1 and assigned WL field &2 have different type + length ?

  The SAP error message CNV_PE_CHECK086 indicates a mismatch between the implementation parameter and the assigned WL (Worklist) field in terms of type and length. This error typically arises during data migration or transformation processes, particularly when using SAP's data migration tools or conversion programs.
  Cause:
  
  Type Mismatch: The data type of the implementation parameter does not match the data type of the assigned WL field. For example, one might be a character type while the other is numeric.
  Length Mismatch: The length of the implementation parameter exceeds or is less than the length of the assigned WL field. For instance, if the WL field is defined to hold a maximum of 10 characters, but the implementation parameter is defined to hold 15 characters, this will trigger the error.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the data migration settings or transformation rules can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Types: Review the data types of both the implementation parameter and the WL field. Ensure they are compatible. If necessary, modify the data type of one to match the other.
  Adjust Lengths: Verify the length of both the implementation parameter and the WL field. Adjust the lengths to ensure they are compatible. This may involve changing the definition of the WL field or modifying the implementation parameter.
  Review Transformation Rules: If you are using transformation rules, check the rules for any discrepancies in the definitions of the parameters and fields. Make sure they are correctly defined.
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, run a test migration or transformation to ensure that the error has been resolved.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific migration tool or process you are using for additional guidance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context.
  Data Migration Tools: Familiarize yourself with the specific data migration tools you are using (e.g., SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit, LSMW, etc.) as they may have specific requirements or configurations.
  Community Forums: Engage with SAP community forums or support channels for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By addressing the type and length discrepancies between the implementation parameter and the WL field, you should be able to resolve the CNV_PE_CHECK086 error.
