  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  VOFM_FMLA_REGISTRY007
  Text: 'Routine Number End' must be greater than 'Routine Number Start'.
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when defining or maintaining routines (formulas, substitutions, validations, or user exits) in SAP Customizing (transaction VOFM). Specifically, it happens when the Routine Number End value is less than or equal to the Routine Number Start value in the routine registry.
  In SAP, routines are assigned a range of numbers (start and end) to uniquely identify them. The system expects the end number to be strictly greater than the start number to define a valid range.
  
  Where does this happen?
  
  When you create or edit a routine in VOFM (e.g., formulas, substitutions, validations).
  In the routine registry, you specify a range of routine numbers.
  If the end number is not greater than the start number, the system throws this error.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Go to transaction VOFM.
  Navigate to the routine registry where you maintain your routines.
