  The SAP error message PZ846 indicates that there is an issue with the selection criteria used in a report or transaction. Specifically, it states that when using ranges, only single values ("EQ" for equal) and intervals ("BT" for between) are allowed. This error typically arises when a user attempts to use other types of selection criteria (like "NE" for not equal, "GT" for greater than, etc.) in a context where only "EQ" and "BT" are valid.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The user has specified a selection criterion that is not allowed in the context of the report or transaction.
  Data Type Mismatch: The field being filtered may not support the type of selection being applied.
  Custom Code or Enhancements: If there are custom developments or enhancements in the system, they may not handle selection criteria correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Check the selection criteria you are using. Ensure that you are only using "EQ" (equal) and "BT" (between) for ranges.
  
  For example, if you are trying to filter a date range, use "BT" to specify a start and end date.
  If you need to filter for a specific value, use "EQ".
  
  
  
  Adjust Input Values: If you are using a selection screen, ensure that you are entering values correctly. For example, if you are using a range, make sure to specify the lower and upper limits correctly.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the documentation for the specific report or transaction to understand the valid selection criteria.
  
  
  Check for Custom Code: If the error persists and you suspect custom code, consult with your ABAP developer to review any custom logic that may be affecting the selection criteria.
