Q: SAP detected the following error Please enter in the format ___,___,__~.__

Answer

This error means that in one of the line items you have a dollar amount that is not formatted well. It could be odd characters but it's more likely that the amount has fractional cents in it.

For example, if items come in a box of ten for $12.08 and you enter it as 10 @ 1.208, the tenths of a penny column is unacceptable to SAP.

The solution is to round off your pricing (e.g., $1.21 each) or order in larger unit quantities. (e.g., 1 box of ten pens at $12.08).
