• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BWFS_TECHNICAL056 - Data read with above selection ?

  The SAP error message BWFS_TECHNICAL056 typically indicates that there is an issue with the data selection criteria used in a query or report in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error suggests that the data read operation did not return any results based on the specified selection criteria.
  Cause:
  
  No Data Available: The most common cause is that there is no data available in the InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube, DataStore Object) that matches the selection criteria specified in the query.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria might be incorrectly defined, leading to a situation where the query is looking for data that does not exist.
  Data Load Issues: There may have been issues during the data loading process, resulting in missing or incomplete data in the InfoProvider.
  Time Period Selection: If the query is restricted to a specific time period, it is possible that there is no data for that period.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data, which can lead to the appearance of no data being available.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there is data in the InfoProvider for the selection criteria you are using. You can do this by running a simple query or using transaction codes like RSA1 to check the data in the InfoProvider.
  Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria in your query. Ensure that they are correctly defined and that you are not filtering out all the data unintentionally.
  Data Load Monitoring: Check the data load process to ensure that data has been loaded successfully into the InfoProvider. Use transaction codes like RSA3 or RSMO to monitor data loads.
  Adjust Time Filters: If your query includes time filters, consider broadening the time range to see if data exists outside the specified range.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user executing the query has the necessary authorizations to access the data in the InfoProvider.
  Query Designer: If you are using the Query Designer, you can test the query with different selection criteria to identify if the issue is with specific filters.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench), RSA3 (Data Source Test), and RSMO (Monitor Data Load).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  Documentation: Review SAP BW documentation for best practices in query design and data modeling to avoid similar issues in the future.
