• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPU212 - For this function, please only select one row in table &1 ?

  The SAP error message RMPU212, which states "For this function, please only select one row in table &1," typically occurs when a function or transaction in SAP expects a single record to be processed, but multiple records have been selected instead. This can happen in various contexts, such as when working with reports, data uploads, or specific transactions that require a unique selection.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the user has selected multiple entries from a table or list when the system is designed to handle only one entry at a time. This can occur in scenarios such as:
  
  Trying to execute a function that is intended for a single record (e.g., editing, deleting, or displaying details).
  Using a selection screen or a report where the user inadvertently selects multiple items.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RMPU212 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Review Your Selection: Go back to the selection screen or the list where you made your selection. Ensure that you only select one row or entry.
  
  
  Deselect Other Entries: If you have selected multiple entries, deselect all but one. This can usually be done by clicking on the checkbox next to the entry you want to keep selected.
  
  
  Re-execute the Function: After ensuring that only one entry is selected, re-execute the function or transaction that triggered the error.
  
  
  Check for Filters: If applicable, check if there are any filters or criteria that can help narrow down your selection to a single entry.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the expected behavior of the function, consult the SAP documentation or help resources related to the specific transaction or function module.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: The error can occur in various transaction codes depending on the context. Common transactions include those related to data maintenance, reporting, or configuration.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to the specific transaction or function you are using.
  User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to perform the action on the selected entry, as sometimes permissions can also lead to unexpected behavior.
