FR304 - Details

• The SAP error message FR304 ("Only one interval possible for posting date; others are ignored") typically occurs in the context of financial postings, particularly when dealing with the configuration of posting periods or intervals in the system. This error indicates that the system has detected multiple intervals for the posting date, but it can only process one interval at a time.
  
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Posting Periods: The error usually arises when there are multiple posting periods defined for the same date, which confuses the system as it expects only one valid interval for the posting date.
  
  Configuration Issues: It may also be due to incorrect configuration in the financial accounting settings, such as overlapping posting periods or incorrect date ranges.
  Document Type Settings: Certain document types may have specific posting period settings that conflict with the general settings.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Posting Periods: Review the posting periods defined in the system. Ensure that there are no overlapping intervals
