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.

@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.
