Hi @PaisleyPrince ,

 

As Ashish_Mathur describes, the likely cause is that the data type of the data source has changed, causing an error to be reported when applying the changed type step.

In the GL Accounts table, in one of the Changedd type steps, a numeric daa type has ben applied to a column which has mixed data types.

@PaisleyPrince seems like the table column has changed, whatever the table you are getting in the error, look where it is, if that table/column exists.
