Unable to enter single value for a variable in BPS

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am using a variable for 'Posting Period' of type 'User defined values' defined in my Planning Area . I am able to input a range of values like 1-3, 1-12, 5-10 etc.

But, my problem is that, when I have to give one value, ie 1-1 or 5-5, I am not allowed. Its gives a message that upper limit should be greater than the lower limit. Any suggestions?

Is there a way, to define a variable in such a way that it can accept both ranges and single values?

Regards,

Srinivas Kamireddy.

Hello Srinivas,

you can input just 1 for the period (w/o high limit).

System will understand it as single value.

Hi,

Already tried that. But system is automatically taking 12 as the Upper limit.

Hi,

we have this functionality overall in our system and i have not experienced,

that the system tries to set the upper limit on it's on (why 12 and not for example 13?).

How can you see that the system uses 12 as the upper limit?

Hi,

The upper limit was automatically set to 12 for posting period because my Fiscal year variant is K4 and will have periods from 1 to 12.
