  Cause:
  This error usually arises when you are trying to create or modify a condition record in a way that is not supported by the system. Specifically, it indicates that the system expects certain types of comparison operators for the condition type you are working with. The allowed operators are:

  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check the Condition Type: Ensure that you are using a condition type that supports the allowed operators. You can do this by reviewing the configuration of the condition type in the SAP system.
  
  
  Modify the Input: If you are entering a condition record, make sure that you are using either 'BT' or 'EQ' as the operator. If you are using a different operator, change it to one of the allowed options.
