  Cause:
  The error can be caused by several factors:
  
  Empty Batch Input Session: The batch input session was created but did not contain any transactions due to an error in the data extraction or recording process.
  Data Issues: The data that was supposed to be processed may not have been correctly formatted or may not meet the criteria for processing, leading to no valid transactions being recorded.
  Session Creation Errors: There may have been issues during the creation of the batch input session, such as incorrect parameters or settings.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Batch Input Session:
  
  Go to transaction SM35 to view the batch input sessions.
  Check the session that is causing the error and see if it contains any transactions. If it is empty, you will need to investigate why.
  
  
  
  Review Data Source:

  Recreate the Batch Input Session:
  
  If the session is empty due to an error, you may need to recreate the batch input session. Ensure that the data is correctly formatted and meets the necessary criteria before creating the session again.
  
  
  
  Check for Errors in Data Preparation:
  
  If you are using a program or a script to prepare the data for the batch input session, review the logic to ensure that it is correctly populating the transactions.
  
  
  
  Consult Logs:
  
  Check the logs for any errors or warnings that occurred during the batch input session creation. This can provide insights into what went wrong.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making corrections, test the process with a small set of data to ensure that the batch input session is created with valid transactions.
