• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L2140 - First item reached ?

  The SAP error message L2140 - "First item reached" typically occurs in the context of inventory management or logistics when the system is unable to navigate to a previous item in a list or document because it is already at the first item. This can happen in various transactions, such as when you are trying to navigate through a list of materials, deliveries, or other related documents.
  Cause:
  
  Navigation Attempt: The error is usually triggered when a user attempts to navigate backward (e.g., using a "Previous" button) while already at the first item in a list.
  User Interface Issue: It may also occur due to a user interface issue where the system does not recognize the current position in the list.

  Solution:
  
  Check Navigation: Ensure that you are not trying to go back when you are already at the first item. If you need to view other items, consider using the navigation buttons appropriately.
  Refresh the List: If you believe there should be more items available, try refreshing the list or re-running the transaction to see if it resolves the issue.
  Review Filters: Check if there are any filters applied that might limit the items displayed. Adjust or remove filters to see if more items become available.
