• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_PRODUCT_WARRANTY027 - Warranty start and end are ignored for counter-based warranties ?

  The SAP error message CRM_PRODUCT_WARRANTY027 indicates that the warranty start and end dates are being ignored for counter-based warranties. This typically occurs when you are trying to create or manage warranties in the SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system, specifically for warranties that are based on counters (like usage or time-based counters) rather than fixed dates.
  
  Cause:
  
  Counter-Based Warranties: The error arises because counter-based warranties do not rely on specific start and end dates. Instead, they are activated based on the usage of a product (e.g., number of cycles, hours of operation, etc.). Therefore, the system ignores any date parameters you may have set.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the warranty settings or the product master data that leads to this error.
  Incorrect Warranty Type: The warranty type being used may not support date-based parameters, leading to the system disregarding them.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Warranty Type: Ensure that you are using the correct warranty
