The placeholder "&1" in the message indicates the specific fiscal year that is being referenced.
  Cause:
  
  
  No Data for the Fiscal Year: The most common cause of this error is that there are no records or entries in the database for the specified fiscal year. This can happen if:
  
  The fiscal year has not been opened for posting.

  Running reports in the relevant financial module (e.g., FI, CO) to see if any transactions exist for that year.
