• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message >4806 - No information exists ?

  The SAP error message "4806 No information exists" typically indicates that the system could not find any relevant data for the query or operation you are trying to perform. This error can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to access a specific record, report, or transaction that does not have any associated data.
  Causes:
  
  
  Data Not Available: The most common cause is that the data you are trying to access does not exist in the database. This could be due to:
  
  The data has not been created yet.
  The data has been deleted or archived.
  The selection criteria used in the query do not match any existing records.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: If you are using specific filters or selection criteria, it is possible that they are too restrictive or incorrect, leading to no results being found.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain data, which can lead to the appearance that no data exists.
  
  
  System Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent data from being displayed correctly.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Data Existence: Verify that the data you are trying to access actually exists in the system. You can do this by:
  
  Using transaction codes or reports that list the relevant data.
  Checking the database tables directly (if you have access).
  
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the selection criteria you are using are correct and not overly restrictive. Try broadening the criteria to see if any data is returned.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Confirm that you have the necessary authorizations to access the data. You may need to contact your SAP security team to verify your permissions.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the error occurs in a specific transaction or report, consult the SAP documentation or help resources for that transaction to understand the expected behavior and data requirements.
