• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CHANGE_INFO646 - Rule at position &1 has changed to an 'Exit condition' ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CHANGE_INFO646 indicates that a rule in the context of the Financial Data Management (FDT) framework has been modified to an "Exit condition." This typically occurs when a rule that was previously active or valid has been altered in such a way that it no longer meets the criteria for execution and is now treated as an exit condition.
  Cause:
  
  Rule Modification: The rule at the specified position (&1) has been changed, possibly by a developer or during a configuration update, to an exit condition. This means that the rule will no longer trigger any actions or processes.
  Logic Changes: The logic within the rule may have been altered, leading to a situation where the conditions for the rule to execute are no longer met.
  Dependency Issues: There may be dependencies on other rules or conditions that have changed, causing this rule to be treated as an exit condition.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Rule Configuration: Check the configuration of the rule at position &1. Ensure that the logic and conditions are set correctly and that they align with the intended functionality.
  Check for Dependencies: Investigate if there are any other rules or conditions that this rule depends on. If those have changed, you may need to adjust this rule accordingly.
  Revert Changes: If the change was unintentional, consider reverting the rule to its previous state if you have a backup or version control in place.
  Testing: After making any changes, thoroughly test the rule to ensure it behaves as expected and does not trigger the exit condition again.
  Documentation: Document any changes made to the rule for future reference and to help other team members understand the modifications.
