• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GP007 - Select an entry ?

  The SAP error message GP007 ("Select an entry") typically occurs in the context of the SAP system when a user is trying to perform an action that requires a selection from a list or table, but no entry has been selected. This error is common in various SAP modules, especially in HR-related transactions or when working with data entry forms.

  Check Filters: If you are using filters to narrow down the list, ensure that the filters are set correctly and that there are entries available to select.
  Refresh the List: If you believe there should be entries available, try refreshing the list or reloading the screen to see if the entries appear.
