• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KX174 - No entries selected -> Operation not executed ?

  The SAP error message KX174 ("No entries selected -> Operation not executed") typically occurs in the context of cost center accounting or internal orders when a user attempts to execute a transaction that requires data selection, but no relevant entries are found based on the criteria provided.
  Causes:
  
  No Data Available: The most common cause is that there are no entries in the database that match the selection criteria specified in the transaction.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The filters or parameters set for the report or transaction may be too restrictive or incorrect, leading to no data being selected.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data, which can result in no entries being displayed.
  Data Not Posted: If the relevant transactions have not been posted yet, there will be no data to select.
  Period Selection: The selected period may not contain any relevant data, either because it is in the future or because no transactions have been recorded for that period.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Selection Criteria: Review and adjust the selection criteria to ensure they are correct and not overly restrictive. This includes checking dates, cost centers, and any other filters applied.
  Verify Data Availability: Ensure that there are indeed entries in the system for the specified criteria. You can do this by checking the relevant tables or using different selection criteria.
