• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QS134 - Class range does not overlap with the tolerance range ?

  The SAP error message QS134, which states "Class range does not overlap with the tolerance range," typically occurs in the context of quality management (QM) when you are trying to assign a class or characteristic to a quality inspection lot or when performing quality control checks. This error indicates that the defined class range for a characteristic does not intersect with the tolerance range that has been set for that characteristic.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatch in Ranges: The class range defined for a characteristic does not overlap with the tolerance range. For example, if the class range is set from 10 to 20 and the tolerance range is set from 15 to 25, there is no overlap.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the quality characteristics or classes may not have been set up correctly in the system.
  Data Entry Errors: There may be errors in the data entry for either the class range or the tolerance range.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Class and Tolerance Ranges:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the quality characteristic in question.
  Check the defined class range and tolerance range to ensure they overlap. Adjust the ranges as necessary to ensure they intersect.
  
  
  
  Adjust Tolerance Settings:
  
  If the class range is correct, consider adjusting the tolerance range to ensure it overlaps with the class range.
  
  
  
  Check Characteristic Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the characteristics are correctly configured in the quality management module. This includes checking the settings for the inspection characteristics in the material master or the inspection plan.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on setting up quality characteristics and ranges correctly.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making adjustments, perform a test to ensure that the error no longer occurs when processing the inspection lot or characteristic.
