    System Response

    Processing is terminated.

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Check the specified payment conditions.
    Note the following for this:
    The day specifications (day limits) must be ascending and cover the
    whole month.
    In combination with day specification 0, no further entries may exist
    for the payment condition (inequal to 0 with day specification),
    because day limit 0 is interpreted as the last day of the month.
    When entering several day limits, you must maintain an entry for day
    limit 31.
    You must propose a date type (base date). It is recommended that you
    use the document date or entry date. When maintaining several day
    limits, only one date type may be used for each payment condition.
    In utility companies, only payment conditions with a one-level discount
    specification may be used.
    The payment conditions with discount specification must guarantee that
    the calculated net due date is not before the discount due date.
