• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CP610 - Selections will be lost ?

  The SAP error message CP610, which states "Selections will be lost," typically occurs in the context of the SAP system when a user attempts to navigate away from a selection screen or when they are about to execute a report or transaction that requires specific input parameters. This message serves as a warning that any selections or filters that have been set will not be retained if the user proceeds.
  Cause:
  
  Navigation Away from Selection Screen: The user is trying to navigate away from the selection screen without saving the current selections.
  Changing Parameters: The user may be changing parameters or options that lead to the loss of previously entered selections.
  Session Timeout: If the session times out or if the user logs out, any unsaved selections will be lost.
  
  Solution:
  
  Save Selections: If you want to keep your selections, look for an option to save them before navigating away. Some reports allow you to save variants that can be reused later.
  Confirm Navigation: If you are sure you want to proceed and do not need the current selections, you can confirm the navigation, and the message will disappear.
  Use Variants: If you frequently use the same selections, consider creating a variant for the report or transaction. This allows you to save your selections and easily retrieve them later.
  Review Input: Before proceeding, double-check your input to ensure that you are not unintentionally losing important selections.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Documentation: Check the SAP Help Portal or the specific documentation for the transaction or report you are using for more details on handling selections and variants.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on how to use selection screens effectively, including how to save and manage variants.
  System Configuration: In some cases, system settings or configurations may affect how selections are handled. Consult with your SAP Basis or technical team if you suspect this is the case.
  
  If the issue persists or if you encounter additional errors, it may be helpful to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues related to the specific transaction or report you are using.
