• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GIS011 - Value of longitude &1 is greater than 180 ?

  The SAP error message GIS011 indicates that a longitude value provided in a transaction or data entry exceeds the valid range for longitude coordinates. Longitude values must be between -180 and +180 degrees. If a value exceeds this range, the system will trigger this error message.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Data Entry: The most common cause is a simple data entry error where the longitude value is mistakenly entered as greater than 180 or less than -180.
  Data Import Issues: If data is being imported from an external source, the source data may contain incorrect longitude values.
  Calculation Errors: If the longitude is derived from calculations or transformations, there may be a bug or error in the logic that produces the longitude value.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Entry: Review the longitude value entered in the transaction. Ensure that it is within the valid range of -180 to +180 degrees.
  Data Validation: Implement validation checks in the data entry process to prevent invalid longitude values from being accepted.
  Correct Source Data: If the longitude value is being imported, check the source data for errors and correct them before importing.
  Debug Calculations: If the longitude is calculated, review the logic and calculations to ensure they are producing valid results.
  Use Mapping Tools: If applicable, use mapping tools or GIS software to verify the coordinates and ensure they are accurate.
