• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SH024 - Lower limit greater than upper limt; enter it again ?

  The SAP error message SH024 ("Lower limit greater than upper limit; enter it again") typically occurs in scenarios where a user is trying to set a range of values, such as in selection screens, parameter entries, or during data entry in various SAP transactions. This error indicates that the lower limit (minimum value) you have entered is greater than the upper limit (maximum value), which is logically incorrect.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Input: The most common cause is that the user has mistakenly entered a lower limit that is numerically greater than the upper limit.
  Data Entry Error: This can happen due to typographical errors or misunderstanding of the fields.
  System Configuration: In some cases, it could be related to how the system is configured to handle ranges.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Your Inputs: Review the values you have entered for both the lower and upper limits. Ensure that the lower limit is indeed less than or equal to the upper limit.
  Re-enter Values: Correct the values and re-enter them. For example, if you entered 100 as the lower limit and 50 as the upper limit, change the lower limit to a value less than or equal to 50.
  Validation: If you are using a selection screen, ensure that the fields are correctly filled out according to the expected data types (e.g., numeric, date).
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the expected values, refer to the relevant SAP documentation or help files for guidance on the specific transaction or report you are working with.
