  The SAP error message SCBO_COMPATIBILITY_C034 indicates that a field has been transported, and as a result, the scale of that field cannot be changed. This error typically arises in the context of SAP BusinessObjects or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when dealing with data models, especially when changes are attempted on fields that have already been transported to a different environment (like from development to production).
  Cause:
  
  Field Transported: The field in question has been transported to a different system (e.g., from development to production).
  Field Properties: The properties of the field, such as its scale, are locked or restricted due to the transport process.

  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Logs: Review the transport logs to confirm the status of the field and understand what changes were made during the transport.
  Revert Changes: If possible, revert any changes made to the field's scale in the development environment before transporting it again.
  Modify in Development: Make the necessary changes to the field's scale in the development environment, ensuring that it is not transported until all changes are finalized.
  Use a Different Field: If changing the scale is critical, consider creating a new field with the desired scale and transporting that instead.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SAP you are using for any additional guidelines or restrictions regarding field properties and transports.
