• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AH623 - Default &1 is greater than permitted deviation &2 ?

  The SAP error message AH623, which states "Default &1 is greater than permitted deviation &2," typically occurs in the context of SAP's handling of deviations in various processes, such as production, quality management, or inventory management. This error indicates that a specified default value exceeds the allowed deviation limit set in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Settings: The error often arises from configuration settings where the default value for a parameter (like a tolerance limit) is set higher than the permitted deviation defined in the system.
  Data Entry: It can also occur due to incorrect data entry where a user inputs a value that exceeds the allowed limits.
  Master Data Issues: There may be issues with the master data settings, such as material master records or production versions, where the deviation limits are not properly defined.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings related to the specific process (e.g., production order, quality inspection) to ensure that the default values and permitted deviations are correctly set. This can usually be done in the SPRO transaction under the relevant module.
  
  
  Adjust Default Values: If the default value is indeed necessary, consider adjusting the permitted deviation limit to accommodate the default value. This should be done with caution and in accordance with business rules.
  
  
  Review Master Data: Check the relevant master data (like material master, routing, etc.) to ensure that the deviation limits are correctly defined and aligned with business requirements.
  
  
  User Training: If the error is due to user input, consider providing training or guidelines to users to ensure they understand the limits and how to enter data correctly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the configuration and implications of changing deviation limits.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like SPRO (for configuration), MM02 (for material master changes), or CO02 (for production order changes) depending on where the error is occurring.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  Testing: After making changes, conduct thorough testing to ensure that the adjustments resolve the error without introducing new issues.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with an SAP expert or your organization's SAP support team for further assistance.
