  SAP Error Message:
  WFD_BL_MSG041: The full transmission date is after the current date.
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when the system detects that the "full transmission date" (often related to workflow or document processing dates) is set to a date that is later than the current system date. In other words, the date entered or calculated for the full transmission is in the future, which is not allowed or expected by the system logic.
  This can happen due to:
  
  Manual entry of a future date in a date field that should not accept future dates.
  Incorrect system date/time settings.
  Incorrect configuration or custom logic that calculates or sets the transmission date incorrectly.
  Data inconsistencies or errors in workflow or document processing dates.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Date Entry:
  
  Verify the date entered for the full transmission date.
  Ensure it is not set to a future date beyond the current system date.
  
  
  
  Correct the Date:
  
  If the date was entered manually, correct it to the current date or a valid past date.
  If the date is calculated by the system or custom code, review the logic to ensure it does not set future dates.
  
  
  
  Check System Date:
  
  Verify the system date and time settings (transaction STZAC or OS level).
  Ensure the system date is correct and synchronized.
  
  
  
  Review Workflow or Document Settings:
  
  If this error occurs in a workflow or document processing context, check the relevant configuration or user input screens.
  Make sure that date fields are validated properly.
  
  
  
  Debug or Analyze Custom Code:
  
  If custom enhancements or user exits are involved in setting the transmission date, debug or review the code to fix any logic errors.
