  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMPU502 - Incorrect module access: No selection parameters and no dialog ?

    The SAP error message RMPU502, which states "Incorrect module access: No selection parameters and no dialog," typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction that requires selection parameters, but none have been provided. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when running background jobs or executing certain programs that expect input parameters.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Selection Parameters: The most common cause is that the program or report requires specific input parameters to execute, and none were provided.
    2. Dialog Mode Requirement: The program may be designed to run in dialog mode, which means it expects user interaction to provide the necessary parameters.
    3. Background Job Execution: If the report is being executed as a background job, it may not have been configured with the required selection parameters.

    Solution:

    1. Provide Selection Parameters: Ensure that you provide all necessary selection parameters when executing the report or transaction. This can usually be done in the initial screen of the report.
    2. Check Job Configuration: If the error occurs during a background job, check the job configuration to ensure that all required parameters are set correctly. You can do this by:
      • Going to transaction SM37 to view the job logs.
      • Checking the job definition to ensure that the selection parameters are filled in.
    3. Run in Dialog Mode: If the program is intended to run in dialog mode, try executing it directly from the SAP GUI instead of as a background job.
    4. Consult Documentation: Review the documentation for the specific report or transaction to understand what parameters are required and how to provide them.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE38 (for executing programs) and SM37 (for monitoring background jobs).
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to the specific report or transaction you are working with.
    • User Authorization: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to execute the report or transaction, as lack of authorization can sometimes lead to misleading error messages.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be helpful to consult with your SAP Basis or technical team for further investigation.
