• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHQ044 - More than one value range available ?

  The SAP error message EHQ044, which states "More than one value range available," typically occurs in the context of data selection or filtering in SAP applications, particularly when dealing with value ranges in selection screens or reports. This error indicates that the system has encountered multiple value ranges for a particular field, and it is unable to determine which one to use.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Value Ranges: The primary cause of this error is that the system has detected more than one value range for a specific field in the selection criteria. This can happen if the user has entered multiple ranges or if the system is configured to allow multiple ranges for a particular field.
  Incorrect Configuration: Sometimes, the configuration of the data model or the selection screen may allow for overlapping or conflicting value ranges.
  User Input: Users may inadvertently input conflicting or overlapping ranges in the selection criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Input Values: Check the input values in the selection screen. Ensure that only one value range is specified for the field in question. If multiple ranges are necessary, consider whether they can be combined or if the selection criteria can be adjusted.
  Adjust Configuration: If the error is due to system configuration, consult with your SAP administrator or technical team to review the configuration settings for the relevant data model or selection screen. They may need to adjust the settings to prevent multiple value ranges from being defined for the same field.
  Use Specific Filters: If applicable, use more specific filters to narrow down the selection criteria, which may help avoid the conflict.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to handle value ranges in the specific context where the error occurs.
