• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CONVERT_OTC006 - Test run carried out ?

  The SAP error message "CONVERT_OTC006 Test run carried out" typically indicates that a conversion or processing operation was executed in test mode rather than in actual mode. This message is often encountered during data conversion processes, such as when using transaction codes for data migration or during the execution of certain programs that can run in both test and update modes.
  Cause:
  
  Test Mode Execution: The operation was executed in test mode, which means that no actual changes were made to the database. This is often done to verify that the process will work correctly before executing it for real.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to default to test mode for certain operations, or the user may have explicitly selected test mode.
  User Authorization: In some cases, user roles and authorizations may restrict the ability to execute certain operations in update mode.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Execution Mode: If you intended to perform the operation in update mode, ensure that you are not in test mode. Look for options or parameters that specify the execution mode and change it to "update" or "production" mode.
  Review Program Parameters: If you are running a specific program or transaction, check the parameters or options you are using. There may be a checkbox or a parameter that indicates whether to run in test mode.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the documentation for the specific transaction or program you are using to understand how to switch from test mode to update mode.
  User Authorization: Ensure that your user account has the necessary authorizations to perform the operation in update mode. If not, contact your SAP administrator to adjust your permissions.

  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to the specific transaction or program you are using.
  Testing Procedures: It is a good practice to run processes in test mode first to identify any potential issues before executing them in production.
