• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EH2027 - Proposed date must be &1 or earlier ?

  The SAP error message EH2027, which states "Proposed date must be &1 or earlier," typically occurs in the context of date validation within SAP applications, particularly in modules related to project management, maintenance, or logistics. This error indicates that the date you are trying to enter or propose is later than the allowed date, which is specified as &1 in the error message.

  System Configuration: The configuration settings in the SAP system may enforce strict date validation rules that are not aligned with the user's expectations.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Proposed Date: Review the date you are trying to enter. Ensure that it is not a future date and is within the acceptable range defined by the system.
  Adjust the Date: If the date is indeed in the future, change it to a valid date that is on or before the specified date (&1).
  Review Business Rules: Consult with your SAP administrator or business process owner to understand the business rules that govern date entries in your specific context.
  System Configuration: If you believe the date validation is too restrictive, discuss with your SAP Basis or configuration team to see if adjustments can be made to the validation rules.
