• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EU850 - No object found to match the selection criteria ?

  The SAP error message EU850: No object found to match the selection criteria typically occurs when a user attempts to retrieve or display data in SAP but the system cannot find any objects that meet the specified selection criteria. This can happen in various SAP modules, such as SAP MM (Materials Management), SAP SD (Sales and Distribution), or others.
  Causes:
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria entered by the user do not match any existing records in the database. This could be due to:
  
  Typographical errors in the input fields.
  Using incorrect or outdated values (e.g., material numbers, vendor codes).
  Filters that are too restrictive.
  
  
  
  Data Not Yet Created: The objects you are trying to access may not have been created yet. For example, if you are looking for a purchase order that has not been created or saved.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain objects, leading to the impression that no objects exist.
  
  
  Data Deletion: The objects may have been deleted or archived, making them unavailable for retrieval.
  
  
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the system configuration or settings that prevent the retrieval of certain objects.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Selection Criteria: Review the input values for any typographical errors or incorrect entries. Ensure that the criteria are valid and correspond to existing records.
  
  
  Broaden the Search: If the criteria are too specific, try broadening the search parameters. For example, remove certain filters or use wildcard characters if applicable.
  
  
  Verify Object Existence: Confirm that the objects you are trying to access have indeed been created. You can do this by checking in the relevant transaction or using alternative search methods.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view the objects. If you suspect authorization issues, contact your SAP security administrator.
  
  
  Consult with IT Support: If the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with your IT support team or SAP Basis team to check for any underlying system issues or configuration problems.
  
  
  Review System Logs: Check the system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
