• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PVJ371 - The cursor is not on the table line ?

  The SAP error message PVJ371, "The cursor is not on the table line," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action that requires the cursor to be positioned on a specific line of a table or list, but it is not. This can happen in various SAP transactions or reports where table entries are displayed.
  Cause:
  
  Cursor Position: The most common cause is that the cursor is not placed on a valid line of the table. This can happen if the user clicks outside the table area or on a header row instead of a data row.
  User Interface Issues: Sometimes, the user interface may not respond as expected, leading to the cursor being in an incorrect position.
  Transaction Restrictions: Certain transactions may have restrictions on what actions can be performed based on the current selection or cursor position.
  
  Solution:
  
  Reposition the Cursor: Ensure that the cursor is placed directly on a valid data line within the table. Click on a specific row of data to select it before performing any actions.
  Refresh the Screen: If the issue persists, try refreshing the screen or navigating away and back to the transaction to reset the cursor position.
  Check for Table Locking: In some cases, the table may be locked or not available for editing. Ensure that the data you are trying to access is not locked by another user or process.
  Use Keyboard Navigation: Instead of using the mouse, try using keyboard navigation (e.g., arrow keys) to move the cursor to the desired line.
  Consult Documentation: If the error continues, refer to SAP documentation or help resources specific to the transaction you are using for additional troubleshooting steps.
  
  Related Information:
