  The SAP error message OQ_E051, which states "No records were selected for processing," typically occurs in the context of order processing, particularly in transaction codes related to production orders, sales orders, or other document processing activities. This error indicates that the system did not find any records that meet the selection criteria specified by the user.
  Causes:
  
  Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria entered by the user do not match any existing records. This could be due to incorrect dates, statuses, or other filters applied during the selection process.
  Data Availability: There may be no data available in the system for the specified criteria. For example, if you are trying to process production orders, there may be no orders that are currently open or eligible for processing.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or process certain records, leading to the appearance that no records are available.

  Solutions:
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that the dates, statuses, and other filters are correct and that they correspond to existing records in the system.
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there are indeed records available for processing. You can do this by running a report or using a different transaction code to see if the records exist.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and process the records. If you suspect an authorization issue, contact your SAP security team to verify your access rights.
