CNV_PE_CHECK146 - Details

• The SAP error message CNV_PE_CHECK146 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the currency fields of a worklist item, specifically that the signs of the currency values are different (i.e., one is positive and the other is negative). This typically occurs during data migration or conversion processes, where financial data is being transferred from one system to another.
  
  Cause:
  
  Data Inconsistency: The primary cause of this error is that the data being migrated has inconsistencies in the currency fields. For example, a transaction that should be a debit (negative) is recorded as a credit (positive), or vice versa.
