  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CMS_ARC003 - No data found for the given selection criteria for entity type & ?

    The SAP error message CMS_ARC003: No data found for the given selection criteria for entity type & typically occurs in the context of the SAP Customer Management System (CMS) or similar applications when a query is executed, but no records match the specified selection criteria.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria used in the query do not match any existing records in the database. This could be due to:

      • Typographical errors in the input fields.
      • Using filters that are too restrictive.
      • Querying for data that does not exist in the system.
    2. Data Not Yet Loaded: If the system is newly set up or if data has recently been migrated, it is possible that the relevant data has not yet been loaded into the system.

    3. Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain data, leading to the appearance of no data being available.

    4. Data Deletion: The data that was previously available may have been deleted or archived.

    5. System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the CMS or the specific entity type being queried.

    Solution:

    1. Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the input values and filters used in the query. Ensure that they are correct and not overly restrictive.

    2. Check Data Availability: Verify that the data you are trying to access actually exists in the system. You can do this by running broader queries or checking other related reports.

    3. User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to access the data. If not, contact your system administrator to adjust the authorizations.

    4. Data Load Verification: If the system is new or has undergone recent changes, confirm that the data has been properly loaded into the system. You may need to run data load jobs or check with the data migration team.

    5. Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or help files related to the specific entity type you are querying. There may be specific requirements or configurations needed.

    6. System Configuration Check: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP Basis or technical team to check for any configuration issues that might be affecting data retrieval.
