  The SAP error message 60673 ("Entry must be numerical") typically occurs when a user attempts to input a value in a field that is expected to contain a numerical value, but the input does not meet this requirement. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during data entry in transactions, configuration settings, or report generation.

  Non-Numerical Input: The most common cause is that the user has entered a non-numerical character (e.g., letters, special characters) in a field that requires a numerical value.
