• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IBRO525 - No open items were found according to the selection criteria ?

  The SAP error message IBRO525 ("No open items were found according to the selection criteria") typically occurs when you are trying to execute a report or transaction that requires open items to be present, but none meet the specified selection criteria. This can happen in various contexts, such as during the execution of a report for open items in accounts receivable or accounts payable.
  Cause:
  
  Selection Criteria: The criteria you have entered (such as date range, document type, company code, etc.) do not match any open items in the system.
  No Open Items: There may genuinely be no open items available for the specified selection criteria.
  Data Entry Errors: There could be typographical errors in the selection fields, leading to no matches.
  Posting Period: The posting period may be closed, and therefore, no open items are available for that period.
  Filters: Additional filters or settings in the report may be too restrictive.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that they are correct and broad enough to capture the open items you are looking for.
  Check Open Items: Use other transactions or reports to verify if there are indeed open items in the system. For example, you can use transaction codes like FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display) or FBL5N (Customer Line Item Display) to check for open items.
  Adjust Date Range: If you are using a date range, try expanding it to see if any open items fall outside your initial selection.
  Posting Period: Ensure that the posting period is open for the transactions you are trying to view. You can check this in the period control settings.
  Remove Filters: If you have applied any filters, try removing them to see if any open items appear.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction or report you are using to understand the selection criteria better.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for managing open items, such as FBL1N, FBL5N, and FBL3N (for general ledger).
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to the specific transaction or report you are using.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view the open items in the system.
  System Configuration: If the issue persists, it may be worth consulting with your SAP Basis or functional team to check if there are any configuration issues affecting the visibility of open items.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the IBRO525 error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
