• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSAR112 - No valid data records found ?

  The SAP error message RSAR112 "No valid data records found" typically occurs in the context of data extraction processes, particularly when using SAP's Data Transfer Process (DTP) or during the extraction of data from a source system to a target system (like BW). This error indicates that the system did not find any valid data records to process.
  Causes:
  
  No Data in Source: The most common cause is that there are no records available in the source system for the specified selection criteria (e.g., date range, filters).
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria defined in the DTP or InfoPackage may be too restrictive, leading to no records being selected.
  Data Load Issues: Previous data loads may have failed, leading to an empty data set.
  Data Activation Issues: If the data in the source system has not been activated or is in a state that prevents it from being read, this error may occur.
  Data Source Configuration: The data source may not be properly configured or may have been changed, leading to a mismatch in expected data.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Source Data: Verify that there is data available in the source system that meets the selection criteria. You can do this by running a query or report directly in the source system.
  Review Selection Criteria: Examine the selection criteria in the DTP or InfoPackage. Ensure that they are set correctly and are not overly restrictive.
  Check Previous Loads: Investigate if there were any issues with previous data loads that might have resulted in no data being available. Look for error messages or logs that indicate problems.
  Data Activation: Ensure that the data in the source system is activated and ready for extraction. If necessary, re-activate the data.
  Data Source Configuration: Review the configuration of the data source in SAP BW. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no changes that could affect data extraction.
  Test Extraction: Perform a test extraction with minimal filters to see if any data can be retrieved. This can help identify if the issue is with the data or the selection criteria.
