  Adjust the Quantities: If the "to quantity" is indeed less than the "from quantity," adjust the "to quantity" to be equal to or greater than the "from quantity."
  
  
  Review Transaction Logic: Ensure that the logic of your transaction makes sense. For example, if you are transferring stock, the amount you are transferring should not exceed the amount you have available.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct quantities, refer to the relevant SAP documentation or user manuals for guidance on the specific transaction you are working with.
  
  
  Check for System Configuration: In some cases, the error may be related to system configuration or settings. If you suspect this might be the case, consult with your SAP administrator or support team.
