• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VR483 - Please select one dimension only. ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  VR483 - Please select one dimension only.
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when you are trying to select or enter multiple dimensions simultaneously in a context where only one dimension is allowed. Typically, this happens in the context of valuation or pricing procedures, where the system expects a single dimension (e.g., a single valuation area, plant, or material dimension) but multiple have been selected or entered.
  For example, in the SAP Material Ledger or Price Determination, certain transactions or reports require you to specify exactly one dimension to avoid ambiguity in valuation or pricing. Selecting more than one dimension leads to this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During price determination or valuation runs.
  When entering or selecting dimensions in transaction codes related to Material Ledger or Inventory Valuation.
  When setting up or running reports that require a single dimension filter.
  In customizing or master data maintenance screens where only one dimension is allowed.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Select only one dimension:
  
  Review the selection screen or input fields and ensure that only one dimension is selected or entered. For example, if you are asked to select a valuation area, plant, or material, choose only one.
  
  
  Check selection criteria:
  
  If you are running a report or transaction, adjust the selection criteria to narrow down to a single dimension.
  
  
  Review configuration:
  
  If this error occurs during configuration or master data maintenance, verify that the settings or master data entries do not contain multiple conflicting dimensions.
  
  
  Consult documentation or SAP Notes:
  
  Sometimes, this error might be related to specific SAP versions or patches. Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches.
