This error message is often encountered in various SAP modules when the system cannot find any data that matches the specified criteria.
  Cause:
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria you have entered do not match any existing records in the database. This could be due to:
  
  Typographical errors in the input fields.
  Using an incorrect or non-existent value for the selection criteria.
  Filters that are too restrictive.
  
  
  
  Data Not Available: The data you are trying to access may not exist in the system. This could be due to:

  Check Input Values: Review the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that all values are correct and exist in the system. Look for any typographical errors.

  Verify Data Existence: Check if the data you are looking for actually exists in the system. You can do this by querying the database directly or using other reports to see if the data is available.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the data. If you suspect authorization issues, contact your SAP security administrator.
