• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SMT058 - Field check: Field &1 of structure &2 has not fixed value &3 but &4 ?

  The SAP error message SMT058 indicates that there is a field check issue in a structure where a specific field is expected to have a fixed value, but it has a different value than what is expected. This error typically arises during data processing or when trying to save data in a transaction.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A field in a structure (e.g., a data structure or table) is defined to accept only specific fixed values (like constants or enumerated values).
  The value being passed to this field does not match the expected fixed value.
  
  For example, if a field is defined to only accept the value "X" and the system receives "Y", this error will be triggered.
  Solution:
  To resolve the SMT058 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Field Definition: 
  
  Review the field definition in the relevant structure (structure &2) to understand what fixed value (&3) is expected for the field (&1).
  
  
  
  Validate Input Data:
  
  Ensure that the data being input or processed matches the expected fixed value. If the value being passed (&4) is incorrect, you will need to correct it in the source of the data.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  If the fixed value needs to be changed (for example, if business requirements have changed), you may need to adjust the configuration in the relevant customizing settings or data dictionary.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If you are unsure where the incorrect value is coming from, you may need to debug the program or transaction that is generating this error to trace the source of the incorrect value.
