• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMCLG435 - Rec.field &1: Type conflict btw. data types of sender field and act.param ?

  The SAP error message DMCLG435 indicates a type conflict between the data types of a sender field and an actual parameter in a data transfer or mapping process. This error typically occurs in the context of data migration, data transfer processes, or when using Data Migration Cockpit (DMO) or similar tools.
  Cause:
  The error arises when there is a mismatch between the data type of a field being sent (the sender field) and the expected data type of the parameter it is being mapped to (the actual parameter). Common causes include:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The sender field may be of a different data type (e.g., character, numeric, date) than what the receiving field expects.
  Field Length Issues: The length of the data being sent may exceed the maximum length allowed for the receiving field.
  Incorrect Mapping: The mapping configuration may be incorrect, leading to an attempt to map incompatible data types.
  Data Format Issues: The format of the data being sent may not conform to the expected format (e.g., date formats, decimal separators).
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DMCLG435 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Data Types: Review the data types of both the sender field and the actual parameter. Ensure they are compatible. For example, if the sender field is a string, the receiving field should also be able to accept strings.
  
  
  Adjust Mapping: If you are using a mapping tool, check the mapping configuration. Ensure that the fields are correctly mapped and that the data types align.
  
  
  Modify Data: If the data being sent is not in the correct format or exceeds length limits, modify the data accordingly. This may involve truncating strings, converting data types, or reformatting dates.
  
  
  Review Field Lengths: Ensure that the length of the data being sent does not exceed the maximum length defined for the receiving field.
  
  
  Test with Sample Data: If possible, test the mapping with sample data that you know conforms to the expected data types and formats to isolate the issue.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the data types and mapping requirements for the fields involved.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the error message DMCLG435.
