• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHSBM_TX021 - Select only one node or entry ?

  The SAP error message EHSBM_TX021 ("Select only one node or entry") typically occurs in the context of the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when working with the EHS Management or EHS Product Safety functionalities. This error indicates that the system expects the user to select only one node or entry from a list or hierarchy, but multiple selections have been made.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Selections: The most common cause of this error is that the user has selected more than one item or node in a tree structure or list where only a single selection is allowed.
  User Interface Restrictions: Certain screens or transactions in SAP EHS are designed to allow only single selections for specific operations, and attempting to select multiple entries triggers this error.
  Configuration Issues: In some cases, the configuration of the EHS module may not be set up correctly, leading to unexpected behavior.
  
  Solution:
  
  Single Selection: Review your selections and ensure that you are only selecting one node or entry. Deselect any additional items before proceeding.
  Check for Filters: If you are using filters or search criteria, ensure that they are set correctly to limit the results to a single entry.
  User Training: If users frequently encounter this error, consider providing training or documentation on how to properly navigate the interface and make selections.
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists and seems to be related to system behavior rather than user error, consult with your SAP administrator or EHS consultant to review the configuration settings.
