  The SAP error message EAM_MIG_MSG000 typically occurs during the migration or data entry process in the SAP Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) module. This error indicates that a specific field, which is expected to be left empty, has been filled in when it should not be, particularly in the context of measurement points that are not counters.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  A measurement point is defined in the system, but it is not classified as a counter.
  The system expects certain fields (like counter readings) to be left empty for measurement points that are not counters.

  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Measurement Point Configuration:
  
  Verify the configuration of the measurement point in question. Ensure that it is correctly classified as a counter or non-counter based on your requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Data Entry:

  Adjust Migration Data:
  
  If this error occurs during a data migration process, review the migration data to ensure that fields related to non-counter measurement points are left empty. You may need to adjust your data extraction or transformation logic to comply with this requirement.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
