• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FUD_DOCVERIF037 - Invaid BRF+ input : current verification level cannot be negative. ?

  The SAP error message FUD_DOCVERIF037 indicates that there is an issue with the Business Rule Framework plus (BRF+) input, specifically that the current verification level cannot be negative. This error typically arises during the document verification process in SAP, particularly when using BRF+ for decision-making or validation rules.
  Cause:
  
  Negative Verification Level: The error suggests that the system is trying to process a verification level that is negative, which is not valid. This could be due to incorrect configuration or data input.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the BRF+ rules or the way the verification levels are defined.
  Data Integrity Issues: The data being processed may have inconsistencies or errors that lead to a negative verification level being calculated or passed to the BRF+ rules.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check BRF+ Configuration:
  
  Review the BRF+ rules and ensure that the logic does not allow for negative values for verification levels.
  Ensure that the rules are correctly set up to handle the expected input values.
  
  
  
  Validate Input Data:
  
  Check the data being processed to ensure that it does not contain any values that could lead to a negative verification level.
  Look for any data entries that might be incorrectly set or calculated.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  Use transaction codes like BRF+ or SLG1 (Application Log) to trace the execution of the BRF+ rules and identify where the negative value is being introduced.
  Analyze the logs for any additional error messages or warnings that could provide more context.
  
  
  
  Adjust Verification Logic:
  
  If the business logic allows for different verification levels, ensure that the logic is adjusted to prevent negative values from being processed.
  Implement checks or constraints in the BRF+ rules to handle edge cases that could lead to negative values.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation related to BRF+ and document verification to ensure compliance with best practices and guidelines.
  
  
  
  Seek Support:
  
  If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a technical expert who specializes in BRF+ and document verification processes.
