  The SAP error message IM412 ("No tasks exist") typically occurs in the context of Inventory Management (IM) when a user attempts to perform an action related to inventory tasks, but there are no tasks available for processing. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during physical inventory counts, stock transfers, or when trying to process inventory-related transactions.
  Causes:
  
  No Open Tasks: There are simply no open inventory tasks available for the user to process. This could be due to all tasks being completed or none being created.
  Task Deletion: Tasks may have been deleted or completed, leading to the absence of tasks.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or process the tasks.

  Review Filters: Ensure that any filters or selection criteria applied are correct and do not exclude existing tasks. Clear any unnecessary filters and try again.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to view and process inventory tasks. This may require coordination with your SAP security team.
