You have selected a line in the index monitor for which no spool list

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

&DEPENDENCIES&
Because the delta indexing runs frequently, it does not make sense to
write a complete spool list every time. Therefore, you can define for
each index whether and in what detail a spool list is written when delta
indexing is carried out. You do this in Customizing for the <LS>Search
</> under <LS>Define Business Objects for Search Engine Service</> using
the parameter <LS>Loglevel</>.
If you start the indexing program online instead of in the batch the
system does not write a spool list. In this case, the indexing mode is
not relevant.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message COM_SE_SEARCH023 - No spool list exists for the selected line ?

  The SAP error message COM_SE_SEARCH023 indicates that there is no spool list available for the selected line in the context of a report or transaction that is expected to generate output in the form of a spool request. This typically occurs when a user tries to access or display a spool list that has not been created or has been deleted.
  Causes:
  
  No Spool Request Created: The report or transaction may not have generated a spool request due to an error or because it was not executed properly.
  Spool Request Deleted: The spool request may have been deleted or expired, making it unavailable for retrieval.
  Incorrect Selection: The user may have selected a line or entry that does not correspond to an existing spool request.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the spool list.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Spool Requests: 
  
  Go to transaction SP01 (Spool Request Management) to check if the spool request exists. You can filter by user, date, and other criteria to find the relevant spool request.
