• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_FOLUPART030 - Valid To is not specified ?

  The SAP error message WRF_FOLUPART030: Valid To is not specified typically occurs in the context of workflow or follow-up processing where a validity period is expected but the "Valid To" date field is missing or not maintained.
  
  Cause:
  
  The error arises because the system expects a "Valid To" date (an end date for a validity period) to be specified for a particular object or record, but this date has not been entered.
  This often happens in scenarios involving partner functions, follow-up partners, or workflow agents where validity periods are maintained.
  For example, in partner determination procedures or follow-up partner assignments, the system requires both Valid From and Valid To dates to define the active period of the partner assignment.
  If the "Valid To" date is left blank or zero, the system throws this error to indicate incomplete data.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain the "Valid To" Date:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction or customizing where the partner or follow-up partner is maintained.
  Enter a valid "Valid To" date to complete the validity period.
  Ensure that the "Valid To" date is greater than or equal to the "Valid From" date.
  
  
  
  Check Partner Determination or Workflow Configuration:
  
  If the error occurs during workflow processing, check the partner determination procedure or workflow container elements.
  Make sure that the partner functions or follow-up partners have valid validity periods maintained.
  
  
  
  Data Correction:
  
  If the error is due to master data, correct the master data records by adding the missing "Valid To" date.
  Use transactions like BP (Business Partner), VD02/XD02 (Customer Change), or relevant customizing transactions depending on the object.
  
  
  
  Custom Code or Enhancements:
  
  If the error arises from custom developments or enhancements, review the code to ensure that the "Valid To" date is properly set or defaulted.
  Add validation or default logic to prevent missing "Valid To" dates.
