• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 8N1023 - E: Range & overlapps with range & ?

  The SAP error message 8N1023 E: Range & overlaps with range & typically occurs when there is an issue with the selection criteria in a report or transaction that involves ranges. This error indicates that the specified ranges for selection criteria overlap, which is not allowed in certain contexts.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by defining overlapping ranges in the selection screen of a report or transaction. For example, if you are trying to filter data based on a range of values (like dates, numbers, etc.), and you have defined two ranges that overlap, SAP will throw this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to check the selection criteria you have defined and ensure that there are no overlapping ranges. Here are the steps to troubleshoot and fix the issue:
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Go to the selection screen of the report or transaction where the error occurred. Look for the ranges you have defined.
  
  
  Identify Overlapping Ranges: Check if any of the ranges you have specified overlap with each other. For example:
  
  Range 1: 01.01.2023 to 10.01.2023
  Range 2: 05.01.2023 to 15.01.2023
  In this case, both ranges overlap.
  
  
  
  Adjust Ranges: Modify the ranges so that they do not overlap. You can either:
  
  Change the start or end date of one of the ranges.
  Remove one of the overlapping ranges if it is not necessary.
  
  
  
  Test Again: After making the necessary adjustments, run the report or transaction again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Check SAP documentation or help files related to the specific transaction or report you are using for more details on how to define selection criteria correctly.
  SAP Notes: Look for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  User Forums: Consider checking SAP community forums or discussion boards where other users may have encountered and resolved similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully execute the report or transaction.
