  The SAP error message E0037, which states "IDocs selected: &", typically occurs when there is an issue with the processing of IDocs (Intermediate Documents) in the SAP system. This error can arise in various contexts, such as during the processing of inbound or outbound IDocs, and it usually indicates that there are IDocs that have been selected for processing but have encountered an issue.
  Causes:
  
  IDoc Status Issues: The IDocs may be in a status that prevents them from being processed (e.g., status 51 - "Application document not posted").
  Data Issues: There may be missing or incorrect data in the IDoc segments that prevent successful processing.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the partner profiles or message types can lead to processing errors.
  Mapping Errors: If there are issues with the mapping of data between the IDoc and the target system, it can cause processing failures.
  System Errors: Temporary system issues or resource constraints can also lead to this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check IDoc Status: Use transaction code WE02 or WE05 to monitor the status of the IDocs. Look for any IDocs with error statuses and analyze the error messages associated with them.
  Analyze IDoc Data: Review the data in the IDocs to ensure that all required fields are populated correctly and that the data adheres to the expected formats.
  Review Configuration: Check the partner profiles (transaction code WE20) and ensure that the settings for the message types and IDoc types are correct.
  Error Handling: If the IDocs are in error status, you may need to correct the data and reprocess them. You can use transaction code BD87 to reprocess IDocs.
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction code SLG1) for any additional error messages that may provide more context on the issue.
  System Resources: Ensure that the system has sufficient resources (memory, processing power) to handle IDoc processing.
