• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IDCMLHU205 - Contract creation date greater than end of term date ?

  The SAP error message IDCMLHU205, which states "Contract creation date greater than end of term date," typically occurs in the context of contract management within SAP. This error indicates that the date you are trying to set for the creation of a contract is later than the end date of the contract term, which is not allowed.
  Cause:
  
  
  Date Configuration: The contract creation date you are entering is after the specified end of term date. This could happen if:
  
  The end date of the contract is set incorrectly.
  The creation date is mistakenly entered as a future date that exceeds the end date.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Dates: Review the dates you are entering for the contract:
  
  Ensure that the contract creation date is earlier than or equal to the end of term date.
  If necessary, adjust the creation date to a valid date that falls within the contract term.
  
  
  
  Adjust End Date: If the contract creation date is correct and you need to extend the contract:
  
  Modify the end of term date to a later date that accommodates the creation date.
  
  
  
  Validation: After making the necessary adjustments, validate the dates again before attempting to create the contract.
