NUMBER_OUTSIDE_VALID_RANGE" salesforce error

TL;DR

The number is outside the field's allowed range. Check the field's min/max (or the picklist of allowed values) and send a value inside the range.

Error

NUMBER_OUTSIDE_VALID_RANGE

Steps

1. Check the field definition for its range Expected: you know the bounds.
2. Clamp or correct the value Expected: it fits.
3. Re-run the operation Expected: it succeeds.
4. Validate ranges client-side before sending Expected: it cannot regress.

When to use

• NUMBEROUTSIDEVALID_RANGE
• A number violates the field's range

When not to use

• The value looks fine (then check the field type: percent vs number)
• The range comes from a validation rule (then read the rule)

Tool compatibility

• Salesforce number fields
• API data loads

Variant phrasings

number outside valid range

Check the field's min/max and send a value inside it.

NUMBEROUTSIDEVALID_RANGE

Same: the value violates the field definition.

Why it happens

Percent fields store 0-100 or 0-1 depending on config, and currency fields have precision limits. Agents guess the scale.

Edge cases

• Formula fields can also throw this if the formula overflows
• Negative values trip unsigned ranges
