Error:Found a local update that is newer than this one

Configuration A, which was done in the development instance, was migrated to the verification instance.
Since it was necessary to modify setting A, we modified setting A in the development instance again and migrated it to the verification instance.
Then, the following error message was displayed during the UpdateSet migration.
 Found a local update that is newer than this one
As far as we can tell, the message reads "Configuration A in the verification instance is newer than this one, and configuration A in the development instance is older.
Since setting A of the verification instance has not been edited in the verification instance, setting A of the development instance should be more up-to-date, so why is this error occurring?

Hi Miyu,

You can accept the changes as Accept Remote Update for setting A configuration.

Hi,

If the change has not been made on the verification instance directly and you are still seeing this message then there are slight chances that another update set might be migrated with newer updates to the target record.

Have you tried action to compare the remote and local changes? 

Btw, if you are sure that the latest updates are the ones coming from dev instance in that can you can accept the remote changes otherwise skip the changes. Skip will ignore the change.
