The SAP error message
/CUM/ORDER067 CU & cannot be copied. Field overflow due to execution factor
typically occurs in the context of the SAP Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with production orders or cost objects. This error indicates that there is an issue with the data being processed, specifically related to the execution factor exceeding the allowed limits for a particular field.Cause:
Field Overflow: The error suggests that the value being processed for a certain field (likely related to quantities, costs, or execution factors) exceeds the maximum limit that the field can hold. This can happen if:
- The execution factor (e.g., planned or actual quantities) is too large.
- There are incorrect or inconsistent data entries in the order or related master data.
- The configuration settings for the order type or related parameters are not set correctly.
Data Inconsistencies: If there are inconsistencies in the data, such as incorrect unit of measure conversions or erroneous entries in the master data, it can lead to this error.
Customizations: If there are custom developments or enhancements in the system that manipulate the data, they might inadvertently cause this overflow.
Solution:
Check Data Entries: Review the data entries for the production order or cost object that is causing the error. Ensure that all quantities and execution factors are within acceptable limits.
Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the order type in the SAP system. Ensure that the settings for maximum values and field lengths are appropriate for your business processes.
Data Validation: Implement data validation checks to ensure that the values being entered do not exceed the defined limits. This can help prevent the error from occurring in the future.
Adjust Execution Factors: If the execution factor is indeed too high, consider adjusting it to a more reasonable value that fits within the field limits.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
