What causes this issue?

You execute the report UMG_FINISH_PREPARATION which is used to finish
the preparation for a Unicode conversion in a Combined Upgrade & Unicode
Conversion scenario (CU<(>&<)>UC).
The execution is not allowed because the release information stored in
table UM4STATUS does not match to release info expected by

the basis start release of the Upgrade is 6.20 or 6.40.

How to fix this error?

if you are not conducting a CU<(>&<)>UC procedure you do not need to
execute report UMG_FINISH_PREPARATION
if you are conducting a CU<(>&<)>UC procedure with a basis start release
6.20 and 6.40 you have to execute report UMG_FINISH_PREPARATION after
finishing the Upgrade
if you are conducting a CU<(>&<)>UC procedure with the basis start
release 4.6C you have to execute report UM4_FINISH_PREPARATION after
finishing the Upgrade
if you are conducting a CU<(>&<)>UC procedure and the table UM4STATUS is
empty you should check that all phases in the Upgrade finished without
error. Table UM4STATUS contains the most important steps of the
preparation for the a Unicode conversion in a CU<(>&<)>UC scenario
