• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MILL_UA021 - Characteristic change was rejected by the configuration ?

  The SAP error message MILL_UA021 indicates that a characteristic change in a configuration was rejected. This typically occurs in the context of variant configuration in SAP, where certain characteristics are interdependent, and a change to one characteristic may violate the rules or constraints set for the configuration.
  
  Cause:
  
  
  Incompatible Characteristics: The change you are trying to make may conflict with other characteristics that have already been set. For example, if you change a characteristic that is dependent on another characteristic, and the new value is not compatible with the existing values, the system will reject the change.
  
  
  Dependencies and Constraints: There may be dependencies defined in the configuration profile that restrict certain combinations of characteristics. If the change violates these dependencies, the system will not allow it.
  
  
  Incomplete Configuration: If the configuration is not complete or if required characteristics are missing, the system may reject changes to ensure that the configuration remains valid.
