  Check the Birth Date Field: Review the birth date entered in the Business Partner data. Ensure that it is a valid date and not set to a future date.
  
  
  Correct the Date: If the birth date is indeed in the future, update it to a valid past date. The date should reflect the actual birth date of the individual.
  
  
  Validation: After correcting the date, revalidate the Business Partner data to ensure that all other fields are also correct and that no other errors are present.
