• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMC_DTL134 - You can only use filters for transfer type 2 (initial load only) ?

  The SAP error message DMC_DTL134 indicates that you are trying to apply filters in a data transfer process that is not compatible with the transfer type you are using. Specifically, this error occurs when you attempt to use filters with a transfer type that is not "initial load" (transfer type 2).
  
  Cause:
  The error arises because:
  
  Filters can only be applied during the initial load of data (transfer type 2).
  If you are using a different transfer type (like delta load or others), the system does not allow the use of filters.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Transfer Type: Ensure that you are using transfer type 2 (initial load) if you want to apply filters. If you are using a different transfer type, you will need to remove the filters.
  
  
  Adjust Data Transfer Settings:
  
  If you need to perform a delta load or another type of transfer, consider whether filters are necessary
