  Solution:
  
  Check Manual Reservations: Review the manual reservation in ECC and compare the requirement dates with those in APO. Ensure that they match.
  Update Data: If discrepancies are found, update the manual reservation in either ECC or APO to ensure that the requirement dates are consistent.

  Monitor CIF Logs: Check the CIF logs for any additional errors or warnings that may provide further insight into the issue.
  Configuration Review: If the problem persists, review the CIF configuration settings to ensure that they are set up correctly for data transfer between ECC and APO.
