• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EIN813 - The system did not find any data records (max. &2) for variant &1. ?

  The SAP error message EIN813 indicates that the system did not find any data records for a specified variant. This typically occurs when you are trying to execute a report or transaction that uses a variant to filter data, but the variant does not match any records in the database.
  Cause:
  
  
  No Data for the Variant: The most common cause is that the variant you are using does not correspond to any existing data in the database. This could be due to:
  
  The selection criteria defined in the variant are too restrictive.
  The data has not been created or has been deleted since the variant was last used.
  The variant is set up incorrectly.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Variant: You may be using the wrong variant or the variant may not be applicable for the current data set.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data that the variant is trying to access.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Variant: 
  
  Go to the transaction where the variant is used and check the selection criteria defined in the variant.
  Ensure that the criteria are correct and that they match the data you expect to retrieve.
  
  
  
  Test with Different Criteria: 
  
  Try executing the report or transaction without the variant or with a different variant to see if data is returned.
  Adjust the selection criteria to be less restrictive to see if any records can be retrieved.
  
  
  
  Verify Data Existence: 
  
  Check the underlying data in the relevant tables to ensure that records exist that should match the variant criteria.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations: 
  
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access the data. If you suspect authorization issues, contact your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Variant: 
  
  If the variant seems to be set up incorrectly, consider recreating it with the correct selection criteria.
