The SAP error message FR056 "No documents selected" typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, particularly when trying to process or display documents in the Financial Accounting (FI) module. This error indicates that the system did not find any documents that meet the selection criteria specified by the user.
Causes:
- Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria entered (such as date range, document type, company code, etc.) do not match any existing documents in the system.
- Document Status: The documents you are trying to access may not be in a status that allows them to be selected (e.g., they may be archived or deleted).
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain documents.
- Data Entry Errors: There may be typographical errors in the input fields, leading to no matching documents.
- Filters Applied: If there are filters applied in the selection screen, they may be too restrictive.
Solutions:
- Check Selection Criteria: Review and adjust the selection criteria to ensure they are correct and broad enough to include existing documents. For example, widen the date range or remove specific filters.
- Verify Document Status: Ensure that the documents you are trying to access are not archived or deleted. You may need to check with your system administrator or use transaction codes to view archived documents.
- Review Authorizations: Confirm that you have the necessary permissions to view the documents. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to request the appropriate access.
- Correct Data Entry: Double-check all input fields for any typographical errors or incorrect entries.
- Remove Filters: If there are any filters applied, try removing them to see if documents appear without restrictions.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
