  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EAM_WF210 - The target objecttype is not supported in combination with this activity. ?

    The SAP error message EAM_WF210 indicates that there is an issue with the workflow configuration in the Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) module. Specifically, it means that the target object type you are trying to use is not supported for the activity you are attempting to perform.

    Cause:

    1. Incompatible Object Type: The object type you are trying to use in the workflow is not compatible with the activity defined in the workflow. This could be due to a mismatch between the object type and the expected input for that particular workflow step.
    2. Workflow Configuration: The workflow may not be properly configured to handle the specific object type you are working with. This could be due to missing or incorrect settings in the workflow definition.
