Cause
Column definitions cannot be altered if they contain data. In this case, one or more of the columns in T_RAW_USER_DELETED that is being modified from datatype NUMBER to datatype VARCHAR2 contains data.
Resolution
This is fixed in 7.0.2 P04.
Workaround
Run the attached script file, ACM-81060.sql, and restart the application. 

$ sqlplus avuser/<password>
SQL> @ACM-81060.sql
SQL> exit
$ acm restart
