Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information for this error:
  Cause:
  
  
  Mismatch in Characteristics: The error indicates that a specific field (characteristic) does not belong to the defined mode or capacity requirement. This can happen if:
  
  The characteristic is not assigned to the mode in the planning model.

  Validate Planning Area:
