  The SAP error message EEDMCOM410 typically indicates an issue with importing data, specifically related to the date format in the import file. This error suggests that the system encountered a problem when trying to read or interpret a date value in the specified import file.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Date Format: The date in the import file may not match the expected format defined in the SAP system. For example, if the system expects dates in the format YYYY-MM-DD and the file contains them in DD/MM/YYYY, this mismatch can trigger the error.

  Review Required Fields: Check that all required fields, including date fields, are present in the import file.
  Test with Sample Data: If possible, create a small sample import file with known good data to test the import process and isolate the issue.
