• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSRV371 - Conversion necessary: Entries above interval limits ?

  The SAP error message RSRV371, which states "Conversion necessary: Entries above interval limits," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are issues with data that exceed defined limits in a certain interval. This can happen during data loading, reporting, or when performing data transformations.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Overflow: The error usually indicates that the data being processed has values that exceed the defined limits for a characteristic or key figure in the InfoObject. For example, if a key figure is defined as a certain data type (like integer or decimal) with specific limits, and the incoming data exceeds these limits, this error will occur.
  
  
  Incorrect Data Types: If the data type of the source data does not match the expected data type in the target InfoObject, it can lead to conversion issues.
  
  
  Data Quality Issues: Sometimes, the source data may contain invalid or unexpected values that do not conform to the expected range.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Data Values: Review the data being loaded or processed to identify any values that exceed the defined limits. You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) or RSRV (Data Consistency Check) to analyze the data.
  
  
  Adjust InfoObject Settings: If the data is valid but exceeds the limits, consider adjusting the settings of the InfoObject to accommodate larger values. This may involve changing the data type or increasing the range limits.
  
  
  Data Cleansing: Implement data cleansing processes to ensure that the incoming data conforms to the expected formats and ranges. This may involve filtering out invalid data or transforming it before loading.
  
  
  Use RSRV Transaction: Use transaction RSRV to check for inconsistencies in the data model. You can run checks related to the specific InfoObject to identify and resolve issues.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific InfoObject and the error message for any additional guidance or known issues.
