    SAP Error Message:
    VR153 - Enter a date
    
    
    Cause: The error message VR153 occurs when a required date field is left empty during data entry in a transaction or program. SAP expects a valid date input in a specific field, and if it is missing or invalid, this message is triggered. This often happens in transactions related to sales, purchasing, or any module where date fields (like document date, posting date, delivery date, etc.) are mandatory.
    Solution: Enter a valid date in the required date field. Make sure the date format is correct according to the system settings (usually DD.MM.YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD depending on your locale). If the date field is populated by default but still triggers the error, check for any user-exits, validations, or custom code that might be clearing or invalidating the date. If you are using a custom program or report, ensure that the date parameter is passed correctly and
