• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_EHPMA_SVT_MSSGS102 - Both start or end date must be provided after specifying an MRP ?

  The SAP error message CM_EHPMA_SVT_MSSGS102 indicates that when you are trying to execute a process related to Material Requirements Planning (MRP), you must provide both a start date and an end date. This error typically occurs in scenarios where a date range is required for the MRP run, but one or both of the dates have not been specified.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of either the start date or the end date in the MRP configuration or execution parameters. The system requires both dates to determine the period for which the MRP should be executed.

  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check MRP Parameters: Go to the MRP transaction or screen where you are trying to execute the MRP. Ensure that both the start date and end date fields are filled in.
  
  
  Input Valid Dates: Enter valid dates in both fields. The start date should be earlier than the end date.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If you are using a custom program or report, check the code to ensure that it correctly handles the date inputs. Make sure that the logic for date selection is implemented properly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the required date formats or the context in which the MRP is being executed, refer to the SAP documentation or help files related to MRP.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After entering the required dates, try executing the MRP process again to see if the error persists.
