The SAP error message
/AIF/ENGINE_BDC015 No data found that can be transformed
typically occurs in the context of the Application Interface Framework (AIF) when there is an attempt to process data that does not exist or is not available for transformation. This error can arise in various scenarios, such as during data import or when processing messages.Causes:
- No Data Available: The most straightforward cause is that there is no data available in the source system or the specified selection criteria do not match any records.
- Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the AIF interface may not be set up correctly, leading to the inability to find data.
- Data Filters: Filters applied in the AIF configuration might be too restrictive, resulting in no data being selected for processing.
- Message Processing Issues: If the message being processed is not correctly formatted or does not meet the expected structure, it may lead to this error.
- Source System Issues: There may be issues in the source system that prevent data from being retrieved, such as connectivity problems or data inconsistencies.
Solutions:
- Check Data Availability: Verify that the data you expect to process is indeed available in the source system. You can do this by running a query or report to see if the records exist.
- Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the selection criteria used in the AIF configuration are correct and not overly restrictive. Adjust them if necessary.
- Validate Configuration: Review the AIF configuration settings to ensure they are set up correctly. This includes checking the interface mapping and transformation rules.
- Examine Message Structure: If you are processing messages, ensure that they conform to the expected structure and format. Validate the incoming message against the defined schema.
- Check Logs: Look at the AIF logs for more detailed error messages or warnings that could provide additional context about why no data was found.
- Test with Sample Data: If possible, test the interface with known sample data to see if it processes correctly. This can help isolate whether the issue is with the data or the configuration.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
