• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message J_1IG_MSGS082 - Customer & : Length of the GSTIN should be >1 and <15 characters ?

  The SAP error message J_1IG_MSGS082 indicates that there is an issue with the length of the GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number) for a customer. The error specifies that the GSTIN must be greater than 1 character and less than 15 characters in length.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid GSTIN Length: The GSTIN entered for the customer is either too short (1 character or less) or too long (15 characters or more).
  Missing GSTIN: The GSTIN field may be empty, which would also trigger this error since it does not meet the minimum length requirement.
  Incorrect Data Entry: There may have been a typographical error or incorrect data entry when inputting the GSTIN.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the GSTIN: Verify the GSTIN entered for the customer. Ensure that it is a valid GSTIN and falls within the required length of 2 to 14 characters.
  Correct the Entry: If the GSTIN is incorrect, update it with the correct value. Make sure it adheres to the format and length specified by the GST regulations.
  Ensure Non-Empty Field: Make sure that the GSTIN field is not left empty. If the customer does not have a GSTIN, you may need to handle this according to your business rules (e.g., using a placeholder or marking the customer as exempt).
  Validation: Implement validation checks in your data entry process to prevent this error from occurring in the future.
