• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message D3098 - No table field was selected! First field was chosen! ?

  The SAP error message D3098 ("No table field was selected! First field was chosen!") typically occurs in the context of data selection or field selection in SAP, particularly when working with data dictionary objects, reports, or queries. This error indicates that the system expected a field to be selected from a table, but none was specified, so it defaults to the first field in the table.
  Cause:
  
  No Field Selected: The user did not select any fields from the table when creating a report or query.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the report or query may not have been set up correctly, leading to the absence of selected fields.
  User Error: The user may have overlooked selecting fields or may not have the necessary permissions to view or select certain fields.
  
  Solution:
  
  Select Fields: Ensure that you explicitly select the fields you want to include in your report or query. This can usually be done in the selection screen or layout settings.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the report or query to ensure that it is set up correctly and that the necessary fields are available for selection.
  Permissions: Verify that you have the appropriate permissions to access and select the fields from the table. If not, contact your SAP administrator to adjust your permissions.
  Default Field Handling: If the system defaults to the first field, you may want to check if this behavior is intended or if it can be modified in the settings.
