• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RMSRCP100 - Change documents about status changes do not exist ?

  The SAP error message RMSRCP100, which states "Change documents about status changes do not exist," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Retail Management System (RMS) or similar modules where change documents are used to track status changes of certain objects, such as articles, promotions, or other retail-related entities.
  Cause:
  
  
  No Change Documents Created: The primary reason for this error is that there are no change documents recorded for the specific object or status change you are trying to access. This can happen if the system has not been configured to create change documents for that particular object type or if the changes have not been made yet.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: The system may not be set up correctly to log changes for the relevant objects. This could be due to missing configuration settings in the relevant customizing transactions.
  
  
  Data Deletion: Change documents may have been deleted or purged from the system, either manually or through a data archiving process.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: In some cases, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the change documents, leading to the perception that they do not exist.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Change Document Configuration: Ensure that the relevant object types are configured to create change documents. This can typically be done in the customizing settings (transaction SPRO) under the relevant module settings.
  
  
  Verify Object Status: Confirm that the object you are querying has had its status changed at least once. If it has not, there will be no change documents to display.
  
  
  Review User Authorizations: Check if the user has the necessary authorizations to view change documents. This can be done by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations in the system.
  
  
  Consult Change Document Tables: If you have access to the database, you can check the relevant change document tables (e.g., CDPOS, CDHDR) to see if any entries exist for the object in question.
  
  
  Recreate Change Documents: If the change documents are essential for your processes and they do not exist, you may need to recreate the changes that would generate these documents, if feasible.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot determine the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
