SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message type: E = Error

  • Message class: V2 - Kopierfunktionen der Verkaufsbelegbearbeitung

  • Message number: 423

  • Message text: Rule &1: A time period and a calendar have been entered. Check entries

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    A time period and a calendar have been entered in this rule. This
    prevents the system from generating settlement periods correctly when
    creating the next billing/invoice date.

    How to fix this error?

    If you require a different billing/invoice date, use the rule for
    determining a different billing/invoice date. In this rule, you can use
    the calendar and/or the time period to change the original
    billing/invoice date.
    If a time period has been entered in the rule, the system adds or
    subtracts the period to or from the original billing/invoice date. When
    you then look in the calendar, the system will always search forwards
    from this new date.
    If you do not enter a calendar or a time period, the system searches
    for the next selected date from the original billing/invoice date.

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V2423 - Rule &1: A time period and a calendar have been entered. Check entries ?

    The SAP error message V2423 typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) when there is a conflict between the time period and the calendar settings in the system. This error indicates that both a time period and a calendar have been specified for a particular rule, which is not allowed.

    To resolve the V2423 error, you can follow these steps:
