  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WAUF_ADD013 - The min value &1 entered is greater than the max value &2 ?

    The SAP error message WAUF_ADD013 indicates that there is a validation issue with the values entered in a certain field, where the minimum value specified is greater than the maximum value. This typically occurs in scenarios where you are trying to set a range for a parameter, and the values do not logically align.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Input Values: The user has entered a minimum value that is greater than the maximum value in a configuration or data entry screen.
    2. Data Entry Error: This could be a simple typographical error where the values were swapped or incorrectly entered.
    3. Configuration Issues: In some cases, this could be due to incorrect settings in the system configuration that define the valid ranges for certain fields.

    Solution:

    1. Check Input Values: Review the values entered for the minimum and maximum fields. Ensure that the minimum value is less than or equal to the maximum value.
    2. Correct the Values: If you find that the values are indeed incorrect, adjust them accordingly. For example, if you have entered a minimum value of 10 and a maximum value of 5, change the minimum to a value less than or equal to 5.
    3. Validation Logic: If this error occurs in a custom program or enhancement, check the logic that validates these values. Ensure that the validation checks are correctly implemented.
    4. Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the valid ranges for certain fields, refer to the relevant SAP documentation or configuration guides.
    5. Testing: After making corrections, test the input again to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
