• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CACSVERSMSG206 - Termination date is not within interval of valid versions ?

  The SAP error message CACSVERSMSG206 indicates that there is an issue with the termination date of a version in the context of a configuration or master data record. Specifically, it means that the termination date you are trying to set or use is not within the valid interval of versions that have been defined in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Date Range: The termination date you are trying to enter is outside the range of valid dates for the version you are working with. Each version in SAP has a defined start and end date, and if the termination date falls outside this range, the error will occur.

  Solution:
  
  Check Version Validity: Verify the validity of the version you are trying to use. Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., for configuration or master data) and check the start and end dates of the version.
  Adjust Termination Date: If the termination date is indeed outside the valid range, adjust it to fall within the defined interval of the version.
  Create or Modify Version: If necessary, create a new version that encompasses the desired termination date or modify the existing version to extend its validity period.
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant SAP documentation or configuration guides to ensure that you are following the correct procedures for setting up versions and their validity periods.
