  The SAP error message /FMP/MP070 &1 cannot be greater than &2 typically indicates that a value being entered or processed in the system exceeds a defined limit or threshold.

  Check Input Values: Review the values you are entering to ensure they do not exceed the defined limits. Compare the value you are trying to input (represented by &1) with the maximum allowed value (represented by &2).
  Review Configuration Settings: If you have access to the configuration settings, check the relevant parameters to see if the limits can be adjusted to accommodate your needs. This may involve working with your SAP administrator or functional consultant.
  Data Validation: Implement data validation checks in your processes to prevent users from entering values that exceed the limits.
