• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ICC_CL073 - 'To G/L Account' must be greater than or equal to 'From G/L Account' ?

  The SAP error message ICC_CL073 indicates that there is an issue with the range of General Ledger (G/L) accounts specified in a transaction. Specifically, the error states that the "To G/L Account" must be greater than or equal to the "From G/L Account." This typically occurs in scenarios where a range of G/L accounts is being defined, such as in configuration settings for financial transactions, reporting, or during the posting of journal entries.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Account Range: The most common cause of this error is that the user has entered a range of G/L accounts where the "To G/L Account" is numerically less than the "From G/L Account." For example, if the "From G/L Account" is 1000 and the "To G/L Account" is 999, this will trigger the error.
  Configuration Issues: In some cases, this error may arise from incorrect configuration settings in the system, particularly in areas where account ranges are defined for reporting or posting.
  Data Entry Errors: Simple typographical errors during data entry can also lead to this issue.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Account Range: Review the G/L account range you have entered. Ensure that the "From G/L Account" is less than or equal to the "To G/L Account." Adjust the values accordingly.
  
  Example: If you have entered "From G/L Account" as 1000 and "To G/L Account" as 999, change the "To G/L Account" to a value greater than or equal to 1000.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration: If this error occurs in a configuration setting (e.g., in a financial report or posting configuration), check the settings to ensure that the account ranges are defined correctly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct account ranges to use, refer to your organization's financial documentation or consult with your finance team.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, test the transaction again to ensure that the error has been resolved.
