• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTVV_MESSAGES232 - 'Valid from' (&1) is before 'Fixed to' (&2) ?

  The SAP error message FTVV_MESSAGES232 indicates that there is a date inconsistency in the configuration of a validity period for a certain object, typically in the context of financial transactions or master data. Specifically, the error states that the "Valid from" date is earlier than the "Fixed to" date, which is logically incorrect.
  Cause:
  This error usually occurs in scenarios where:
  
  You are trying to create or modify a record (such as a pricing condition, master data, or a financial transaction) that has a validity period defined by "Valid from" and "Fixed to" dates.
  The "Valid from" date is set to a date that is earlier than the "Fixed to" date, which violates the expected chronological order.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  Check the Dates: Review the "Valid from" and "Fixed to" dates in the record you are trying to create or modify. Ensure that the "Valid from" date is not earlier than the "Fixed to" date.
  Adjust the Dates: If the "Valid from" date is indeed earlier than the "Fixed to" date, adjust the dates accordingly:
  
  Change the "Valid from" date to a date that is equal to or later than the "Fixed to" date.
  Alternatively, if the "Fixed to" date is incorrect, adjust it to be earlier than the "Valid from" date.
  
  
  Save Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, save the changes and try to execute the transaction again.
