    Causes:

    1. No Company Codes Defined: The most common cause is that there are no company codes defined in the system. This could be due to a lack of configuration or data entry.
    2. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the company codes.
    3. Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the transaction may not match any existing company codes.
    4. Data Migration Issues: If the system has recently undergone data migration or changes, it’s possible that company codes were not migrated correctly.
