  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOFU/FBI_DT_VIEW121 - There is no selection for the given input ?

    The SAP error message /BOFU/FBI_DT_VIEW121 There is no selection for the given input typically occurs in the context of SAP BusinessObjects or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when a query or report is executed without any data matching the specified input criteria. Here’s a breakdown of the potential causes, solutions, and related information:

    Causes:

    1. No Data for Input Parameters: The input parameters provided in the query do not match any records in the database. This could be due to incorrect values or filters applied.
    2. Data Not Loaded: The data might not have been loaded into the InfoProvider or the data source you are querying.
    3. Incorrect Query Design: The query might be designed in such a way that it filters out all data based on the input parameters.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user executing the query may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data.
    5. Time Frame Issues: If the query is time-sensitive, ensure that the time frame selected has data available.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Input Parameters: Review the input parameters you are using in the query. Ensure they are correct and that they correspond to existing data.
    2. Data Availability: Verify that the data has been loaded into the relevant InfoProvider. You can check the data load status in the Data Warehousing Workbench.
    3. Modify Query Filters: If applicable, adjust the filters in the query to broaden the selection criteria and see if data is returned.
    4. Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the data. This can be checked in the user roles and authorizations settings.
    5. Review Time Frame: If the query is based on a specific time frame, ensure that the selected period has data available. You may want to expand the date range.
    6. Test with Default Values: Run the query with default or minimal input values to see if any data is returned, which can help identify if the issue is with specific input values.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP frequently updates its knowledge base with solutions to common problems.
