• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UGX4607 - Variable &1: You must not specify an interval (range) ?

  The SAP error message UGX4607 indicates that there is an issue with the way a variable is being used in a report or query. Specifically, it states that for the variable identified as &1, you must not specify an interval (range). This typically occurs when a variable is defined in a way that does not allow for range values, but a range has been provided in the selection criteria.
  Cause:
  
  Variable Type: The variable in question is likely defined as a single value variable rather than a range variable. In SAP, some variables are designed to accept only single values, while others can accept ranges.
  Incorrect Input: The user may have inadvertently entered a range (e.g., using a "from" and "to" value) when the variable is set up to accept only a single value.
  Query Design: The query or report design may not align with the variable's configuration, leading to this error when executing the report.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Variable Definition: Review the definition of the variable in the SAP system. Ensure that it is set up correctly according to the intended use. If it should accept a range, you may need to redefine it.
  Adjust Input: If the variable is indeed meant to accept only a single value, modify the input in the selection screen to provide a single value instead of a range.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the documentation or help files related to the specific report or query to understand the expected input for the variable.
  Modify Query/Report: If you have access to modify the query or report, consider changing the variable type to allow for ranges if that aligns with the business requirements.
