RSM225 - Details

• The SAP error message RSM225 indicates that there is an issue with the selection criteria used in a report or transaction where a wildcard character (*) is used in the "From-value" field, but the "To-value" field is not blank. This is a restriction in certain selection criteria where the use of wildcards is only valid when the "To-value" is left empty.
  
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  You are trying to use a wildcard (*) in the "From-value" field of a selection screen.
  The "To-value" field is filled with a value, which is not allowed when using wildcards in the "From-value".
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to adjust your selection criteria:
  
  Remove the Wildcard: If you do not need to use a wildcard, you can simply enter a specific value in the "From-value" and "To-value" fields.
  Clear the To-value: If you want to use a wildcard in the "From-value", you must leave the "To-value" field blank. This
