  Correct the Values: If you find that the upper limit is indeed less than the lower limit, adjust the values accordingly:
  
  Increase the upper limit if it is too low.
  Decrease the lower limit if it is too high.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and try to execute the transaction again.
