• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MPE_CM_EFFECTIVITY063 - Not all change numbers have same effectivity type ?

  The SAP error message MPE_CM_EFFECTIVITY063 indicates that there is a mismatch in the effectivity types of change numbers being processed. This typically occurs in the context of change management, where multiple change numbers are involved, and they do not share the same effectivity type.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to perform an operation (like a mass change or a release) involving multiple change numbers that have different effectivity types. Effectivity types define how and when a change is applicable, and they must be consistent across all change numbers involved in the operation.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Change Numbers: Review the change numbers you are trying to process. Ensure that they all have the same effectivity type. You can do this by navigating to the change management transaction and checking the details of each change number.
  
  
  Modify Change Numbers: If you find that the change numbers have different effectivity types, you will need to either:
  
  Change the effectivity type of the change numbers to match each other.
  Separate the change numbers into groups that share the same effectivity type and process them individually.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's guidelines on change management to understand the implications of effectivity types and how to manage them properly.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide further assistance.
