  SAP Error Message:
  WG457 PO &1 rejected: delivery date is in past
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to create or change a Purchase Order (PO) or a related document (like a Goods Receipt or Delivery) with a delivery date that is earlier than the current date or the system's allowed date range. Essentially, the system is rejecting the document because the delivery date specified is in the past, which is not allowed based on the system settings or business rules.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The delivery date on the PO or related document must be today or a future date.
  The system checks the delivery date against the current date or a configured tolerance period.
  If the delivery date is before the current date (i.e., in the past), the system throws this error to prevent processing outdated or invalid delivery schedules.
