6D837 - Details

• The SAP error message 6D837 indicates that the selection criteria for a report or transaction related to lease-outs (such as contracts) are too broad, resulting in the system attempting to process all lease-outs. This can lead to performance issues or runtime errors due to the large volume of data being processed.
  
  Cause:
  The error typically occurs when:
  
  The selection criteria for the report or transaction are not specific enough, leading to the selection of all lease-out contracts.
  The system is unable to handle the volume of data being selected, which can cause performance degradation or timeouts.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Refine Selection Criteria:
  
  Narrow down the selection criteria in the report or transaction. Instead of selecting all lease-outs, specify additional filters such as:
  Date ranges
  Specific contract types
  Status of the contracts
  Other relevant attributes that can help limit the selection.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check for Default Values:
  
  Ensure that there are no default values set in the selection screen
