  The SAP error message SADL_CONDITION002 indicates that there is an issue with the selection option value being used in a query or filter condition. Specifically, the error states that the value provided for a selection option cannot be converted into the expected data type of the corresponding field. This typically occurs in the context of the SAP ABAP programming environment, particularly when using the SAP Data Access Layer (SADL) for querying data.
  Cause
  The error can be caused by several factors:
  
  Data Type Mismatch: The value provided for the selection option does not match the expected data type of the field. For example, if the field is of type integer and a string is provided, this error will occur.
  Invalid Format: The format of the value provided may not be compatible with the expected format of the field. For instance, if a date field is expected, but a string is provided that does not conform to date formatting.
  Incorrect Mapping: If there is a mapping issue between the selection option and the field, it can lead to this error.
  Null or Empty Values: Providing a null or empty value when a valid value is expected can also trigger this error.
  
  Solution
  To resolve the SADL_CONDITION002 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  Check Data Types: Verify the data type of the field in the database or the data model. Ensure that the value you are providing matches this data type.
  Validate Input Values: Ensure that the values being passed to the selection options are valid and in the correct format. For example, if a date is expected, ensure that the date is formatted correctly (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD).
  Debugging: Use debugging tools in SAP to trace the execution and identify where the incorrect value is being set. This can help pinpoint the source of the issue.
  Review Mapping: If you are using a custom implementation or a specific data model, review the mapping between the selection options and the fields to ensure they are correctly aligned.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in your code to catch such issues and provide meaningful feedback to users or logs for further analysis.
