• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CONV152 - Time limit (transformation matrices) expired ?

  The SAP error message CONV152 indicates that a time limit has expired during the execution of a transformation, typically when converting data from one format to another (e.g., during data migration or ETL processes). This error can occur in various contexts, such as during data uploads, data transformations, or when using certain SAP tools like SAP Data Services or SAP BW.
  Causes:
  
  Long Processing Time: The transformation process is taking longer than the allowed time limit set in the system.
  Large Data Volume: The volume of data being processed is too large, causing the transformation to exceed the time limit.
  Inefficient Transformation Logic: The logic used in the transformation may not be optimized, leading to longer processing times.
  System Performance Issues: The underlying system may be experiencing performance issues, such as high CPU or memory usage, which can slow down processing.
  Configuration Settings: The time limit for transformations may be set too low in the system
