The SAP error message EM068, which states "Input length shortened: Check the conversion values," typically occurs when there is a mismatch between the expected input length of a field and the actual length of the data being processed. This can happen in various scenarios, such as data entry, data import, or during the execution of certain transactions.
Cause: Field Length Mismatch: The data being entered or imported exceeds the defined length of the field in the database or the program. Conversion Values: If there are conversion routines or value mappings defined for the field, they may not be correctly set up, leading to truncation of the input data. Data Type Issues: The data type of the input value may not match the expected data type, causing SAP to truncate the input. Custom Code: If there are custom programs or enhancements, they may not handle the input data correctly, leading to this error.
