• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 12155 - No change documents are available ?

  The SAP error message "12155 No change documents are available" typically occurs when a user attempts to access change documents for a particular object (like a material, vendor, or customer) but the system cannot find any change documents related to that object. This can happen for several reasons:
  Causes:
  
  
  No Change Documents Created: The most straightforward reason is that no change documents have been created for the object in question. This could be because the object has not been modified since it was created.
  
  
  Change Document Configuration: The change document functionality may not be properly configured for the specific object type. For example, if change documents are not activated for a particular table or object, no change records will be generated.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view change documents, leading to the error message.
  
  
  Data Deletion: Change documents may have been deleted or archived, making them unavailable for retrieval.
  
  
  Incorrect Object Reference: The user may be trying to access change documents for an object that does not exist or is incorrectly referenced.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Object Modifications: Verify if the object has been modified. If it has not been changed, there will be no change documents available.
  
  
  Activate Change Document: If you are an administrator, check the configuration settings for the object type in transaction SCDO (Change Document Objects). Ensure that change documents are activated for the relevant object.
  
  
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to view change documents. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations.
  
  
  Check for Deletion/Archiving: Investigate if the change documents have been deleted or archived. If they have been archived, you may need to restore them from the archive if necessary.
