- You must enter names in lower case (is changed automatically) ?SAP Error Message:
WFE_REQUEST_CRM201: You must enter names in lower case (is changed automatically)
Cause:
This error message typically occurs in SAP CRM Web UI or related workflow scenarios where the system expects certain input fields (usually user names, IDs, or email addresses) to be entered in lowercase. The system enforces this to maintain consistency, avoid case sensitivity issues, or comply with backend system requirements.
The message indicates that the user has entered names or identifiers in uppercase or mixed case, but the system automatically converts them to lowercase. The error or warning is shown to inform the user about this automatic conversion.
Explanation:
User Training:
Inform users to enter names, email addresses, or IDs in lowercase to avoid this message and ensure smooth processing.
UI Enhancement (Optional):
If possible, enhance the UI input fields to automatically convert input to lowercase as the user types, preventing the message from appearing.
Check Custom Code or Enhancements:
If this message appears unexpectedly or frequently, check for any custom validations, BAdIs, or enhancements that enforce lowercase input and adjust them if necessary.
Ignore if Informational:
If the message is only informational and does not block processing, it can be safely ignored after understanding that the system converts input to lowercase automatically.
