This can happen for various reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Causes of RJ006 Error
  
  
  No Data in Source System: The most straightforward reason is that there is simply no data available in the source system for the specified selection criteria.
  
  
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the extraction process may be too restrictive, leading to no records being selected.
  
  
  Data Load Issues: If the data has not been loaded into the source system or if there are issues with the data load process, the extractor may not find any data.
  
  
  Delta Mechanism: If you are using a delta extraction and there have been no changes since the last extraction, the extractor will return no data.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The extractor may not be configured correctly, or there may be issues with the data source settings.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the extraction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data.
  
  
  Solutions to RJ006 Error
  
  
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there is data in the source system for the specified time frame and selection criteria. You can do this by running a query directly on the source tables.
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Ensure that the selection criteria used in the extraction are appropriate and not overly restrictive. Adjust them if necessary.
  
  
  Data Load Verification: Confirm that the data load process has been executed successfully and that the data is present in the source system.
  
  
  Delta Extraction Check: If using delta extraction, check the last delta load date and ensure that there have been changes since that date.
  
  
  Configuration Review: Review the configuration of the extractor in the SAP system to ensure it is set up correctly.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user executing the extraction has the necessary authorizations to access the data.
  
  
  Check for Errors in Previous Steps: If the extraction is part of a larger process, check for any errors in previous steps that might have affected data availability.
  
  
  Related Information
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like RSA3 (for testing extractors) to check if the extractor returns data directly.
  Logs and Traces: Check the logs and traces for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that might address known issues with specific extractors or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
  Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific extractor you are using to understand its behavior and any prerequisites.
