• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS734 - Minimum and maximum cannot have same values ?

  The SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS734 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a range of values in a field, specifically that the minimum and maximum values are set to the same value. This is not allowed because a range requires distinct minimum and maximum values to define a valid interval.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You are trying to define a range for a field (e.g., in a validation rule, a formula, or a data element) where the minimum value is equal to the maximum value.

  Test the Changes: After making the adjustments, test the configuration to ensure that the error no longer appears and that the functionality works as expected.
