  The SAP error message FARR_CONTR_LIFECYCLE056 typically occurs in the context of the SAP Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX) module, particularly when dealing with the Business Add-In (BAdI) for contract lifecycle management. This error indicates that the BAdI implementation for the change type determination has returned an invalid change type for a specific object (POB - Property Object).
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following issues:
  
  Invalid Change Type: The BAdI implementation is returning a change type that is not recognized or valid within the context of the operation being performed.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system that lead to the BAdI not being able to determine the correct change type.
  Custom Code Issues: If there is custom code implemented in the BAdI, it may not be handling certain scenarios correctly, leading to an invalid return value.
  Missing or Incorrect Data: The data being processed may be incomplete or incorrect, which can affect the determination of the change type.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check BAdI Implementation:
  
  Review the implementation of the BAdI FARR_CONTR_LIFECYCLE to ensure that it is correctly determining and returning valid change types.
  Ensure that the logic in the BAdI is handling all necessary scenarios and that it returns a valid change type.
  
  
  
  Validate Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings related to contract lifecycle management in the RE-FX module. Ensure that all necessary settings are correctly configured.
  Verify that the change types defined in the system are valid and correspond to the expected values.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
