  The characteristic is defined in a way that it cannot be used with the class type you are trying to assign it to.

  Check Characteristic Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code CT04 to check the definition of the characteristic that is causing the error.

  Review Class Type Settings:

  Ensure that the characteristics assigned to the class type are appropriate and that there are no restrictions preventing the use of the characteristic in question.
  
  
  
  Adjust Class Assignment:
  
  If the characteristic is not meant to be used with class type 100, consider whether it should be assigned to a different class type that is compatible with its definition.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to classification and characteristics to understand the limitations and requirements for class type 100.
  
  
  
  Testing:
