  The SAP error message FITVPS165 indicates that there is an issue with the end time being set to '00:00' in a time-related entry, such as in a time evaluation or planning scenario. In SAP, '00:00' is often interpreted as the start of a new day, which can lead to confusion in time calculations. Therefore, the system automatically adjusts the end time to '24:00' to represent the end of the day.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Time Entry: The user has entered '00:00' as the end time for a time period, which is not valid in the context of the system's time handling.

  Solution:
  
  Change the End Time: Instead of entering '00:00', you should enter '24:00' if you intend to represent the end of the day. Alternatively, you can use '23:59' to indicate the last minute of the day.
  Review Time Entry Logic: If this error occurs frequently, review the logic or process that leads to the entry of '00:00' as an end time. Ensure that users are trained to enter time correctly.
  System Configuration: If necessary, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to see if there are any settings that can be adjusted to handle time entries more intuitively.
