How To Fix AH848 - Lower limit of interval &1 must be <= upper limit of interval &2

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: AH - IS-U billing (master data)

• Message number: 848

• Message text: Lower limit of interval &1 must be <= upper limit of interval &2

What causes this issue?

Note the following:
Interval specifications are relevant for <DS:DE.PRCZONAJ>price block
adjustment</>. If the actual billing period does not correspond to the
time basis for the price, the blocks are usually adjusted if the
<ZH>Adj. PBlcks</> (adjust price blocks) indicator is set. The only
exception would be if the actual billing period falls within the
specified interval.
If no intervals are to be taken into consideration, do not enter any
values in the fields <ZH>ULim.int.</> and <ZH>LLim.int.</> (upper and
lower limit of the interval).
If you wish to use intervals, enter the values as follows:
Lower limit of interval <= time basis of the price <= upper limit of
interval.
Since the interval is always specified in days and provided the time
category is "month", the time basis for the price is converted to days
based on the relationship 12 months = 365 days. If the calculation
results in a non-whole number, then the whole number for the lower
limit must be less than the non-whole number and the whole number for
the upper limit must be greater than the non-whole number. For example,
if the time basis = 3 and the time category = month, the time basis in
days is as follows: (365*3)/12 = 91.25. Therefore the specifications
must be <= 91 for the lower limit of the interval and >= 92 for the
upper limit of the interval.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AH848 - Lower limit of interval &1 must be <= upper limit of interval &2 ?

  The SAP error message AH848 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of an interval in your system. Specifically, it means that the lower limit of a specified interval (denoted as &1) is greater than the upper limit of that interval (denoted as &2). This is a logical error because, in any interval, the lower limit must always be less than or equal to the upper limit.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises in scenarios where:
  
  You are defining or modifying an interval (for example, in pricing, tax calculations, or other configuration settings).
  The values entered for the lower and upper limits are incorrect, leading to the lower limit being greater than the upper limit.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Interval: Determine which interval is causing the error. The error message will provide you with the specific interval identifiers (the values for &1 and &2).
  
  
  Check Configuration: Go to the relevant configuration area in SAP where the interval is defined. This could be in pricing conditions, tax codes, or any other relevant module.
  
  
  Correct the Values:
  
  Ensure that the lower limit (value &1) is less than or equal to the upper limit (value &2).
  If necessary, adjust the values accordingly. For example, if the lower limit is set to 100 and the upper limit is set to 50, change the upper limit to a value greater than or equal to 100.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and exit the configuration.
  
  
  Test the Changes: Perform a test transaction or process that utilizes the interval to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files related to the specific module you are working with for more detailed guidance on configuring intervals.
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the context, you may need to use specific transaction codes (like SPRO for configuration) to access the relevant settings.
  Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP community forums for additional assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the AH848 error and ensure that your interval configurations are correct.
