The SAP error message GR657 ("Set & in set & does not contain any entries") typically occurs when you are trying to access a set (a collection of data) that is expected to contain entries, but it is empty. This can happen in various contexts, such as when working with sets in reporting, selection criteria, or data processing.
Cause:

The set was never populated with data.
The data that should populate the set has been deleted or is not available.
The selection criteria used to populate the set did not match any records.
Incorrect Set Definition: The set may be incorrectly defined or configured, leading to it not pulling any data.
