What causes this issue?

Not JV summary records were selected for revaluation. This can be due
to several reasons:
There are no items to be revaluated. In this case the error message can
be ignored. Check the SAPF100 report written to spool if anything was
selected.
There is a problem with the file. This is an operating system issue.
FI and JV data are inconsistent. This can only happen if FI (SAPF100)
has items reported for revaluation.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

System Response

How to fix this error?

In case nothing was selected by SAPF100, please ignore the error

If that comes out to be consistent there is probably a file system
problem.
