  1. Cause
  
  The message WRF_CHAR_VAL091 is typically an informational or warning message generated during data validation or update processes involving the MARA table (which stores general material data in SAP).
  The message indicates that a certain number of MARA records have been updated.
  This message often appears in the context of mass data changes, data migration, or custom validation routines where material master data is being processed.
  It is not an error per se but a confirmation that the system has successfully updated the specified number of MARA records.
  However, if this message appears unexpectedly or in error logs, it might be related to:
  
  Custom validation or enhancement implementations (e.g., BAdIs, user exits) that perform updates on MARA.
  Data inconsistencies or incorrect data input triggering updates.

  If the message appears unexpectedly or you want to verify the updates:
  
  Check the context where the message appears (e.g., transaction, program, or batch job).
  Review the updated MARA records to ensure data correctness.
  If the update is part of a custom program or enhancement, review the code to confirm that updates are intentional and correct.
  If the message is part of a data migration or mass update, verify the source data and mapping rules.
  
  
  If the message is causing confusion or clutter in logs, consider adjusting the message handling in the custom code (e.g., change message type from info to success or suppress it if appropriate).
