This typically occurs during data transfer processes, such as when using SAP SuccessFactors Employee Central (HCM) integration or during data uploads.
  Cause:
  
  Data Length Mismatch: The source field contains data that exceeds the maximum length defined for the target field in the SAP system.

  Check Field Lengths: Review the definitions of both the source and target fields. Ensure that the target field's maximum length is sufficient to accommodate the data being sent from the source field.
  Adjust Data: If the source data exceeds the target field's length, consider truncating the data or modifying it to fit within the allowed length.
  Update Configuration: If necessary, update the configuration of the target field to increase its maximum length, if that is feasible and aligns with business requirements.
  Data Mapping Review: Verify the data mapping configuration to ensure that the correct fields are being used and that their lengths are compatible.
