• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FKKXI_MAP007 - Lower limit contains an asterisk (*) ?

  The SAP error message FKKXI_MAP007 indicates that there is an issue with the mapping of a lower limit in a configuration or data entry process, specifically that the lower limit contains an asterisk (*). This typically occurs in the context of the SAP Convergent Charging or SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) modules, where limits or ranges are defined for certain parameters.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the presence of an asterisk (*) in the lower limit field. In SAP, an asterisk is often used as a wildcard character, which can lead to confusion when defining limits or ranges. The system expects a specific numeric value or a valid range definition, and the presence of an asterisk violates this expectation.
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you should:
  
  
  Check the Configuration: Go to the relevant configuration settings where the lower limit is defined. This could be in the context of pricing, billing, or any other area where limits are set.
  
  
  Remove the Asterisk: Ensure that the lower limit does not contain an asterisk. Replace it with a valid numeric value that accurately reflects the intended limit.
  
  
  Validate Input: If the error occurs during data entry, double-check the input fields to ensure that no unintended characters (like an asterisk) are present.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, test the process again to ensure that the error is resolved and that the system behaves as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to the SAP Help Portal or specific module documentation for more details on how limits and ranges should be defined.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes that may help in navigating to the configuration settings (e.g., SPRO for configuration).
  Support: If the issue persists after making changes, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a functional consultant who specializes in the relevant module.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the FKKXI_MAP007 error and ensure that your configuration is set up correctly.
