  The SAP error message RESRSE020 indicates that a changed sales report, identified by the parameters provided (e.g., &1 from &2), no longer exists in the system. This typically occurs in the context of reporting or data retrieval processes where the system is trying to access a report that has been deleted, renamed, or otherwise made unavailable.
  Causes:
  
  Report Deletion: The report may have been deleted by a user or through a system process.
  Report Renaming: The report might have been renamed, and the system is still trying to access it using the old name.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to access the report, leading to the perception that it does not exist.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the database or application layer that prevent the report from being found.
  Transport Issues: If the report was moved between different environments (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been transported correctly.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify Report Existence: Check if the report still exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or report area in SAP.
  Check for Renaming: If the report has been renamed, find the new name and update any references to the old name.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the report. This may involve checking user roles and permissions.
  Consult Change Logs: If the report was deleted or modified, check the change logs to see who made the changes and when.
  Recreate the Report: If the report is indeed missing and cannot be recovered, consider recreating it based on the original specifications.
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, verify that the transport was successful and that all necessary objects were included.
  System Consistency Check: Run consistency checks or database integrity checks to ensure that there are no underlying issues affecting report availability.
  
  Related Information:
