• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 8B141 - No messages selected ?

  The SAP error message 8B141: "No messages selected" typically occurs in the context of the SAP system when you are trying to process or display messages (such as in the message monitoring or processing transactions) but there are no messages available that meet the selection criteria you have specified.
