  typically occurs during the migration or conversion of characteristics in the SAP system, especially in the context of classification data or variant configuration (LO-VC).
  
  Cause
  
  The error indicates that the system cannot migrate a particular characteristic (represented by &1) with a specific value or attribute (represented by &2) during a test run of a migration or conversion program.
