• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_MKTTG_SAF060 - Filter &1 does not uniquely describe the required selection ?

  The SAP error message CRM_MKTTG_SAF060 indicates that the filter you are trying to use does not uniquely identify the selection criteria required for the operation you are attempting to perform. This typically occurs in the context of marketing or campaign management within SAP CRM, where filters are used to segment data for various purposes.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Unique Filter Criteria: The filter you have defined may not be specific enough to uniquely identify the records you want to work with. For example, if you are filtering on a field that has multiple values, the system cannot determine which specific records to select.
  Missing or Incorrect Filter Values: If the filter is missing required values or has incorrect values, it may lead to ambiguity in the selection.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with the underlying data that cause the filter to return multiple records instead of a unique set.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Filter Criteria: Check the filter criteria you have set up. Ensure that it is specific enough to uniquely identify the records. You may need to add additional conditions or refine existing ones.
  Check for Required Fields: Make sure that all required fields for the filter are populated correctly. If any fields are optional, consider whether they should be included to narrow down the selection.
  Test with Different Values: If possible, test the filter with different values to see if it can yield a unique selection. This can help identify which specific criteria are causing the issue.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to set up filters correctly in the context of your specific application.
  Data Quality Check: Perform a data quality check to ensure that the data being filtered is accurate and does not contain duplicates or inconsistencies that could lead to non-unique results.
