  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACEC023 - The upper threshold amount must be larger than the lower one. ?

    The SAP error message ACEC023, which states "The upper threshold amount must be larger than the lower one," typically occurs in the context of configuring thresholds for certain financial or operational processes within SAP. This error indicates that the system has detected an inconsistency in the threshold values you have entered, where the upper threshold is not greater than the lower threshold.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Input Values: The most common cause is that the user has entered the upper threshold amount as equal to or less than the lower threshold amount.
    2. Configuration Errors: There may be a misconfiguration in the settings related to thresholds in the relevant module (e.g., controlling, finance).
    3. Data Migration Issues: If data has been migrated from another system, it’s possible that the threshold values were not correctly set.

    Solution:

    1. Check Input Values: Review the values you have entered for both the upper and lower thresholds. Ensure that the upper threshold is indeed greater than the lower threshold.
    2. Adjust Thresholds: If you find that the values are incorrect, adjust them accordingly. For example, if the lower threshold is set to 100 and the upper threshold is set to 100, change the upper threshold to a value greater than 100 (e.g., 150).
    3. Review Configuration Settings: If you are unsure about the correct values, consult with your SAP configuration team or refer to the relevant documentation to understand the expected range for these thresholds.
    4. Test Changes: After making adjustments, test the changes to ensure that the error message no longer appears and that the system behaves as expected.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for the specific module you are working with to understand the context of threshold settings.
    • Transaction Codes: Depending on the module, you may need to use specific transaction codes (e.g., SPRO for configuration) to access and modify threshold settings.
    • User Roles and Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to threshold settings in SAP.
    • Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this error or provide additional guidance.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or reach out to SAP support for further assistance.
