• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ICLPOLS021 - No values available for selection ?

  The SAP error message ICLPOLS021: No values available for selection typically occurs in the context of the SAP system when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction that requires certain selection criteria, but no valid values are available for those criteria. This can happen in various modules, including SAP Controlling (CO) or SAP Financial Accounting (FI).
  Causes:
  
  
  Data Availability: The most common cause is that there is no data available in the database for the selection criteria specified. This could be due to:
  
  No transactions have been posted for the selected period.
  The selection criteria are too restrictive, leading to no matching records.
  
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data, which can lead to the system not displaying any available values.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that limit the data available for selection, such as missing or incorrect settings in the relevant modules.
  
  
  Selection Screen Settings: The selection screen may be set up incorrectly, leading to no values being fetched.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Data Availability:

  Review Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the data. This may involve checking user roles and permissions in the SAP system.
