• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EWA050 - Enter one selection criterion only ?

  The SAP error message EWA050, which states "Enter one selection criterion only," typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction that requires a single selection criterion, but multiple criteria have been provided.
