This error typically occurs in various SAP modules where date ranges are required, such as in reporting, planning, or scheduling.

  Review the Dates: Check the values entered for both the "From date" and "To date."
  Correct the Dates: Adjust the "To date" to a date that is the same as or later than the "From date."
  Re-submit the Transaction: After making the necessary adjustments, re-submit the transaction or report.
