• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_NF_API023 - Operator does not expect a range of values ?

  The SAP error message CRM_NF_API023 indicates that an operator in a query or selection does not expect a range of values. This typically occurs when you are trying to filter data using a range (e.g., between two values) in a context where the operator only supports single values.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Operator Usage: The operator you are using in your selection criteria may not support range values. For example, using operators like = or <> which expect a single value instead of a range.
  Field Type Mismatch: The field you are trying to filter may not be designed to handle ranges. For instance, if you are filtering a text field with a range, it may lead to this error.
  Query Configuration: If you are using a custom query or report, the configuration might not be set up to handle ranges properly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Operator: Review the operator you are using in your selection criteria. If it is an operator that does not support ranges, change it to one that does, such as >= or <= for numeric or date fields.
  Use Single Values: If the operator does not support ranges, modify your selection criteria to use single values instead of a range.
  Review Field Types: Ensure that the fields you are filtering are appropriate for the type of operation you are performing. If you need to filter by a range, make sure the field supports it.
  Adjust Query Logic: If you are using a custom query, check the logic and ensure that it is designed to handle ranges where necessary. You may need to modify the query to accommodate the expected input.
