• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ILM_STOR_MBC062 - Casting failure. You tried to cast '&1' to intiger ?

  The SAP error message ILM_STOR_MBC062 indicates a casting failure where the system attempted to convert a value (represented by &1) to an integer type, but the conversion was unsuccessful. This typically occurs in the context of data processing or data management, particularly in the Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) module.
  Cause:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The value being cast to an integer is not in a format that can be converted. For example, it might be a string that contains non-numeric characters or is empty.

  Solution:
  
  Check Input Values: Review the value that is being passed to the casting operation. Ensure that it is a valid integer or a string that can be converted to an integer.
  Data Validation: Implement validation checks before the casting operation to ensure that the data is in the correct format.
  Debugging: If this error occurs in custom code, use debugging tools to trace the execution and identify where the invalid value is being introduced.
