  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMLGD_INFO317 - Cmpny code &1 vrnt &2;"Fldr Prfx from" is bigger than "Fldr Prefix until" ?

    The SAP error message FMLGD_INFO317 indicates that there is an issue with the folder prefix settings in the context of a company code and variant. Specifically, the error states that the "Folder Prefix from" value is greater than the "Folder Prefix until" value. This typically occurs in the configuration of document management or archiving settings within SAP.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Configuration: The folder prefix range has been incorrectly set up in the system. The "From" value is supposed to be less than or equal to the "Until" value, but in this case, it is not.
    2. Data Entry Error: During the setup or modification of the folder prefix settings, a typographical error may have occurred, leading to an invalid range.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you need to correct the folder prefix settings in the SAP system:

    1. Access the Configuration:

      • Go to the relevant configuration transaction in SAP (this could be through SPRO or a specific transaction code related to document management or archiving).
    2. Locate the Folder Prefix Settings:

      • Navigate to the section where folder prefixes are defined for the company code and variant in question.
    3. Check the Values:

      • Review the "Folder Prefix from" and "Folder Prefix until" values. Ensure that the "From" value is less than or equal to the "Until" value.
    4. Correct the Values:

      • If the "From" value is greater than the "Until" value, adjust the values accordingly. For example, if "From" is set to "B" and "Until" is set to "A", change "From" to a value that is less than or equal to "Until".
    5. Save Changes:

      • After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and exit the configuration.
    6. Test the Changes:

      • Perform a test to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the folder prefix settings are functioning as expected.
