  • What causes this issue?

    Selection criterium &V1& is required for the selection of the receiver
    report. The criterium was not sent on to the receiver.
    Example:
    You create a user-defined cost center report without the criterium
    "Cost center". You use the function "Callup report" to call up the line
    item report. This cannot select without the cost center, so the line
    item report rejects the processing.
    You use a report through the general selection screen of Report Writer.
    Here, you have the option of entering nothing for the cost center, for
    example. Instead, all cost centers are to be selected.
    The receiver report cannot continue processing on the basis of this
    information if the receiver report views "Cost center" as a mandatory
    entry.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    criterium.
