• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IDCN131 - You have entered value &1 more than once or it is part of another range ?

  The SAP error message IDCN131 indicates that there is a problem with the input values in a certain field, typically related to the configuration of ranges or intervals in a transaction. This error usually occurs when:
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Entries: You have entered the same value more than once in a range or interval. For example, if you are defining a range of values for a parameter, and you accidentally include the same value multiple times, this error will be triggered.
  Overlapping Ranges: The value you are trying to enter is part of another defined range. For instance, if you have a range defined as 1-10 and you try to enter 5 as a separate range, it will cause this error because 5 is already included in the first range.

  Solution:
  
  Check for Duplicates: Review the values you have entered and ensure that there are no duplicates. Remove any repeated values from the input.
  Review Ranges: Look at the defined ranges and ensure that the value you are trying to enter does not overlap with any existing ranges. Adjust the ranges as necessary to avoid conflicts.
  Correct Data Entry: Ensure that the data is entered correctly, following the required format and guidelines. Double-check for any typos or formatting issues.
