• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ABU_IBC_MSG091 - Templ.&1 (&2):Rel.to template &2: Max. cardinality smaller than min.card. ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ABU_IBC_MSG091 indicates an issue related to the cardinality settings of a template in the context of SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) or similar applications. The message states that the maximum cardinality is smaller than the minimum cardinality for a specific template.
  Cause:
  This error typically arises when there is a mismatch in the configuration of cardinality settings for a template. Cardinality refers to the number of instances of one entity that can or must be associated with instances of another entity. In this case, the maximum cardinality (the upper limit of instances) is set to a value that is less than the minimum cardinality (the lower limit of instances), which is logically inconsistent.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check Template Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings of the template mentioned in the error message.
  Review the cardinality settings for the relevant entities involved.
  
  
  
  Adjust Cardinality Settings:
  
  Ensure that the maximum cardinality is greater than or equal to the minimum cardinality. For example, if the minimum cardinality is set to 1, the maximum cardinality should be at least 1 or higher.
  Make necessary adjustments to the cardinality settings to ensure they are logically consistent.
  
  
  
  Validate Changes:
  
  After making changes, validate the template configuration to ensure that the error is resolved.
  Test the template to confirm that it functions as expected without triggering the error message.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the correct cardinality settings, refer to the SAP documentation or guidelines for the specific application you are working with.
  
  
  
  Seek Support:
  
  If the issue persists after making adjustments, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP team for further assistance.
