• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EL460 - Device &1, MR date &2: Date of maximum lies within a billed period ?

  The SAP error message EL460 indicates that there is an issue with the billing period for a device (in this case, a meter) and its corresponding measurement reading (MR date). The error message specifically states that the "Date of maximum lies within a billed period," which means that the date of the maximum reading falls within a period that has already been billed.
  
  Cause:
  
  
  Billed Period Conflict: The error typically arises when a maximum reading (or any measurement reading) is recorded for a device during a time frame that has already been billed. This can happen if:
  
  The maximum reading is being processed after the billing for that period has already been completed.
  There are overlapping billing periods or incorrect billing dates.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of billing periods or the way readings are being recorded and processed.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Billing Periods: Review the billing periods for the device in question. Ensure
