• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DIACL069 - Start of operation and end of operation are identical ?

  The SAP error message DIACL069 indicates that there is an issue with the operation data in a production order or a routing. Specifically, it means that the start and end times of an operation are identical, which is not valid because an operation must have a duration.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises from one of the following scenarios:
  
  Incorrect Data Entry: When creating or modifying a routing or production order, the start and end times for an operation may have been entered incorrectly, resulting in them being the same.
  System Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the routing or production order that lead to this error.
  Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system or if there have been recent changes to the routing or production order, it may have resulted in this inconsistency.
  
  Solution:

  Check the Operation Details:

  Modify the Operation:
  
  If you find that the start and end times are indeed the same, modify the operation to set a valid duration. For example, if the operation is supposed to take 1 hour, set the end time to be 1 hour after the start time.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If the issue persists, check the configuration settings related to the routing and production orders. Ensure that there are no settings that could lead to this error.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
