Check Assignment Dates: Review the assignment dates for the object in question. Ensure that the end date of the assignment (
&2

).Adjust Time Periods: If the dates are incorrect, adjust them to ensure that the end date of the assignment is after the end date of the related assignment.
Review Overlapping Assignments: Check for any overlapping assignments that may be causing the conflict. Ensure that there are no other assignments that have conflicting time periods.
Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources related to the specific module you are working with for additional context on how to manage assignments and time periods.

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.
