  Causes:
  
  
  No Items in the Delivery: The delivery or shipment you are trying to pack may not contain any items. This could happen if the delivery was created without any line items or if all items have already been packed.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection: You may be trying to pack items from a delivery or order that is not currently selected or is not in the correct status for packing.
  
  
  Status Issues: The items may be in a status that does not allow them to be packed (e.g., they are already packed, canceled, or in a different processing state).
  
  
  Filters or Selection Criteria: If you are using filters or selection criteria in the packing screen, it may be set in such a way that it excludes all items.

  Recreate Delivery: If the delivery is empty or incorrectly configured, consider recreating it with the correct items.
  
  
  Check Configuration: If you suspect a configuration issue, consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team to ensure that the packing process is set up correctly in the system.
