• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARR_CONTR_LIFECYCLE101 - POB &1: Unfreeze date &2 before effective date &3 must not be changed. ?

  The SAP error message FARR_CONTR_LIFECYCLE101 typically occurs in the context of contract management or asset accounting within the SAP system. This error indicates that there is an issue with the dates related to the lifecycle of a contract or asset, specifically regarding the unfreeze date and the effective date.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when there is an attempt to change the unfreeze date of a contract or asset to a date that is earlier than its effective date. In other words, the system is enforcing a rule that the unfreeze date must not be set to a date that precedes the effective date of the contract or asset.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the unfreeze date is set correctly in relation to the effective date. Here are the steps you can take:
  
  
  Check the Effective Date: Identify the effective date of the contract or asset in question. This date is typically the date from which the contract or asset is considered active.
  
  
  Review the Unfreeze Date: Look at the unfreeze date that you are trying to set. Ensure that it is not earlier than the effective date.
  
  
  Adjust the Dates: If the unfreeze date is indeed earlier than the effective date, you will need to either:
  
  Change the unfreeze date to a date that is equal to or later than the effective date.
  If necessary, adjust the effective date (if business processes allow) to accommodate the desired unfreeze date.
  
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and check if the error persists.
