  The SAP error message /SAPCND/TST_CUS_CONS018 indicates a mismatch in the number of keys and fields for a specific condition table in the SAP system. This error typically arises during the configuration or activation of condition tables in the SAP Converged Data Management (CDM) or similar modules where condition records are used.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a discrepancy between the expected number of key fields and the actual number of fields defined in the condition table. This can happen due to:
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The condition table may have been configured incorrectly, leading to a mismatch in the number of keys and fields.
  Changes in Data Structure: If there have been recent changes to the data structure or the underlying tables, it may lead to inconsistencies.
  Transport Issues: If the configuration was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may have been issues during the transport process that caused the mismatch.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments or enhancements that affect the condition tables, they may not align with the standard expectations.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the condition table in transaction SPRO or the relevant customizing transaction. Ensure that the number of key fields matches the expected configuration.
  
  
  Review Condition Table Definition: Go to transaction V/03 (for condition tables) and check the definition of the condition table mentioned in the error message. Ensure that the fields and keys are correctly defined.
  
  
  Consistency Check: Use transaction SE11 to check the database table associated with the condition table. Ensure that the structure of the table matches the expected structure.
  
  
  Transport Logs: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or warnings that might indicate issues during the transport process.
  
  
  Recreate Condition Table: If the issue persists, consider recreating the condition table. This can sometimes resolve underlying issues that are not easily identifiable.
