  Check Input Parameters: Review the input fields in the selection screen of the transaction or report. Ensure that you are providing exactly one value for the field that is causing the issue.

  Consult Documentation: Refer to the specific documentation for the transaction or report you are using to understand the expected input format and constraints.
  Test with Valid Data: Try running the report or transaction with known valid data to ensure that the issue is related to the input parameters.
