- Material &1 (&2), &3: Valid-to date lies in the past ?Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message: SAP Error Message: WRF_PPW838 Material &1 (&2), &3: Valid-to date lies in the past Meaning /
Cause: This error occurs when you try to create or update a material master record or related data (such as purchasing info records, source lists, or other master data) with a valid-to date that is earlier than the current date (i.e., the valid-to date is in the past). In SAP, validity periods are used to define the time frame during which certain data (like prices, conditions, source lists, etc.) are valid. The system prevents you from entering a validity period that has already expired because it would not make sense to create or maintain data that is no longer valid. Typical Scenarios: Maintaining purchasing info records or source lists with a valid-to date that is before today's date. Creating or changing conditions or master data with validity periods that have already ended. Uploading
