How To Fix DPR_SHARED236 - &1 &2 > &3 &4: Conflict due to moved date

DPR_SHARED236 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: DPR_SHARED - Development Projects: Messages for Shared Objects

• Message number: 236

• Message text: &1 &2 > &3 &4: Conflict due to moved date

What causes this issue?

You have defined a constraint for the project element <(>&<)>V2& (
<(>&<)>V1&). However, this constraint shifts the project element
<(>&<)>V4& (<(>&<)>V3&) on the time line so that it overlaps
with a predecessor or successor or is before the fixed start date or
fixed finish date of the project.
<ZU>Example:</>
Two phases P1 and P2 are linked by a relationship with a <ZH>positive</>
lag. You set the <ZK>Must start on</> constraint for a task that belongs
to phase P2 and the constraint date is before the finish date of phase
P1. This causes an overlap between the phases P1 and P2.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

System Response

The system resolves this scheduling conflict by resetting the constraint
dates for the project element <(>&<)>V2& (<(>&<)>V1&).

How to fix this error?

Check the relationships for the project element <(>&<)>V4& (
<(>&<)>V3&). Adjust the relationships accordingly. If you want the
project elements to overlap, define relationships with a <ZH>negative</>
lag.
The project element <(>&<)>V4& (<(>&<)>V3&) is a phase:
Do not allow phases to overlap; the phase concept works on the basis
that phases are disjoint.
The project element <(>&<)>V4& (<(>&<)>V3&) is the project
definition:
Set the constraints on the project element <(>&<)>V4& (<(>&<)>V3
&) accordingly or adjust the constraints on the project
definition.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DPR_SHARED236 - &1 &2 > &3 &4: Conflict due to moved date ?

  The SAP error message DPR_SHARED236 indicates a conflict due to a moved date in the context of project management, particularly when dealing with project definitions, work packages, or tasks in the SAP Project System (PS) or SAP Portfolio and Project Management (PPM) modules. This error typically arises when there is a scheduling conflict due to changes in dates that affect dependencies or relationships between project elements.
  
  Cause:
  The error message DPR_SHARED236 is triggered when:
  
  A date change (e.g., start date, finish date) for a project element (like a task or work package) conflicts with the dates of other related elements.
  The moved date violates the constraints or dependencies set between tasks, such as finish-to-start, start-to-start, or other relationships.
  There may be overlapping dates that are not allowed based on the project scheduling rules.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the DPR_SHARED236 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Dependencies: Review the dependencies between the project elements. Ensure that the moved
