• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VR494 - Enter single values only ?

  SAP Error Message:
  VR494 - Enter single values only
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a user enters a range or multiple values in a field where only a single value is allowed. The system expects a single, specific value, but the input contains either a range (e.g., "1000 to 2000") or multiple entries separated by commas or other delimiters.
  For example, in a selection screen or input field that requires a single material number, entering "1000-2000" or "1000,1001" will trigger this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Enter only one single value in the field where the error occurs.
  Avoid ranges or multiple values separated by commas, hyphens, or other delimiters.
  If you need to enter multiple values or ranges, check if the field or selection screen supports multiple entries or ranges. If not, you must enter values one at a time or use a different selection method.
  Review the field's input help (F4 help) or documentation to understand the allowed input format.
