  The SAP error message GK377 ("There is no data to be copied") typically occurs in the context of data transfer processes, such as during the execution of a report or transaction that is supposed to copy or transfer data from one location to another. This error indicates that the system did not find any data that meets the criteria for copying.
  Causes:
  
  No Source Data: The most common cause is that there is no data available in the source table or dataset that matches the selection criteria specified in the transaction or report.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The parameters or filters set for the data selection may be too restrictive, resulting in no data being found.
  Data Not Yet Created: If the data is expected to be created by a previous process or transaction, it may not have been executed yet, leading to an absence of data.

  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to access the data. Consult with your SAP security team if you suspect authorization issues.
  Consult Logs: Check any relevant logs or error messages that may provide additional context about why the data is not available.
