  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CM_RGG005 - Select one row only ?

    The SAP error message CM_RGG005, which states "Select one row only," typically occurs in scenarios where the system expects the user to select a single entry from a list or table, but multiple entries have been selected instead. This can happen in various SAP transactions or reports where a single selection is required for processing.

    Cause:

    1. Multiple Selections: The user has selected more than one row in a selection screen or table where only one selection is allowed.
    2. User Interface Limitation: The design of the transaction or report may only support single-row selection due to the nature of the operation being performed.
    3. Incorrect User Action: The user may have inadvertently clicked multiple rows or used keyboard shortcuts that resulted in multiple selections.

    Solution:

    1. Select a Single Row: Review the list or table and ensure that only one row is selected. You can do this by clicking on the desired row while ensuring that no other rows are highlighted.
    2. Deselect Other Rows: If multiple rows are highlighted, click on the selected rows again to deselect them, leaving only the desired row selected.
    3. Use Keyboard Shortcuts: If you are using keyboard shortcuts, ensure that you are using the correct keys to select a single row (e.g., using the arrow keys to navigate and the Enter key to select).
    4. Check for Filters: If applicable, apply filters to narrow down the selection to a single entry before attempting to proceed.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Context: This error can occur in various transactions, such as those related to material management, sales orders, or any other module where single-row selection is required.
    • User Training: Providing training or documentation to users on how to properly select entries in SAP can help reduce the occurrence of this error.
