  The SAP error message EDATEX287 "No IDocs were sent" typically indicates that the system attempted to process an IDoc (Intermediate Document) but found that there were no IDocs available to be sent. This can occur in various scenarios, such as during the outbound processing of IDocs for data transfer between systems.
  Causes:
  
  No Data to Process: There may be no data available for the IDoc to be generated. This can happen if the selection criteria for the data extraction do not match any records.
  IDoc Generation Issues: The IDoc may not have been generated due to errors in the preceding processes or configurations.

  Application Errors: There may be application errors or issues in the source system that prevent IDocs from being created.
