    The SAP error message CNVMBTRFC006 indicates that there is a mismatch in the languages used in the RFC (Remote Function Call) destinations and/or the logon language. This error typically arises during data migration or when using certain tools that rely on RFC connections, such as the SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) or other data migration tools.

    Cause:

    1. Language Mismatch: The logon language of the user and the language set in the RFC destination do not match. For example, if the user logs in with English (EN) but the RFC destination is set to German (DE), this error may occur.

      • Go to transaction SM59 in the SAP GUI.
      • Locate the relevant RFC destination.
      • Check the settings, particularly the "Logon Language" field. Ensure that it matches the logon language of the user who is executing the transaction.
    2. Adjust User Logon Language:

      • This can be done in the user profile settings (transaction SU01).
    3. Consistency Across Systems:

      • Ensure that both the source and target systems have consistent language settings in their respective RFC destinations.
      • If you are migrating data between systems, ensure that the language settings are compatible.
    4. Testing:

      • After making the necessary changes, test the RFC connection again to ensure that the error is resolved.
