  Adjust the Dates: If the start and end dates are indeed the same, modify one of the dates to create a valid billing period. For example, if the start date is set to January 1, 2023, you might change the end date to January 2, 2023, or later.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If this error occurs frequently, it may be worth reviewing the configuration settings for billing documents in your SAP system to ensure that the date logic is correctly set up.
