• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G0012 - No entries found that match selection criteria ?

  The SAP error message G0012, which states "No entries found that match selection criteria," typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction that requires specific data, but the system cannot find any records that meet the defined selection criteria. This can happen in various SAP modules, including Financial Accounting (FI), Controlling (CO), and 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 incorrect date ranges, account numbers, or other parameters.
  
  
  Data Not Yet Posted: If the user is looking for data that has not yet been posted or recorded in the system, this error will occur.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain data, leading to the appearance that no entries exist.
  
  
  Data Deletion: Records may have been deleted or archived, making them unavailable for the current selection criteria.
  
  
  Filters Applied: If there are filters applied in the report or transaction that limit the data displayed, it may result in no entries being found.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that all fields are filled out correctly and that the values are valid.
  
  
  Adjust Date Ranges: If applicable, widen the date range or check if the dates are correct.
  
  
  Check for Data Posting: Verify that the relevant transactions have been posted in the system. If not, you may need to enter the missing data.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view the data. You may need to contact your SAP security administrator for assistance.
  
  
  Consult with IT or SAP Support: If you suspect that data has been deleted or archived, consult with your IT department or SAP support team to investigate further.
  
  
  Use Alternative Reports: If the report you are trying to run is not yielding results, consider using alternative reports or transactions that may provide the information you need.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Depending on the module, you may be using different transaction codes (e.g., FBL1N for vendor line items, FBL3N for G/L account line items).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues related to the specific transaction or report you are using.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or user manuals for guidance on the specific report or transaction to understand the expected input and output.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the G0012 error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
