  The SAP error message R111704, which states "The move date &1 is not in the validity range of the source object," typically occurs in the context of inventory management or logistics when trying to perform a stock transfer or a similar operation. This error indicates that the date you are trying to use for the movement (the move date) is outside the validity period of the source object (such as a material, batch, or storage location).
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Move Date: The move date you are trying to use is either before the start date or after the end date of the validity period for the source object.
  Material Master Data: The material master data may have specific validity dates that restrict when the material can be moved.
  Batch Management: If batch management is enabled, the batch may have a defined validity period that does not include the move date.
  Storage Location Restrictions: The storage location may have restrictions on when stock can be moved in or out.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Move Date: Verify the move date you are using and ensure it falls within the validity range of the source object. Adjust the date if necessary.
  Review Material Master Data: Go to the material master record and check the validity dates. You can do this using transaction code MM03 (Display Material) and check the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Purchasing, Sales).
  Check Batch Validity: If you are dealing with batches, check the batch record to ensure that the move date is within the batch's validity period. You can use transaction code MSC3N (Display Batch) to view batch details.
  Storage Location Settings: Review the settings for the storage location to ensure there are no restrictions on movements for the specified date.
  Adjust Configuration: If the validity dates are set incorrectly, you may need to adjust the configuration or data in the system to allow for the desired movement.
  
  Related Information:
