  The SAP error message RSBO009 ("Selected row is empty") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when working with queries, reports, or data extraction processes. This error indicates that the system is trying to process a row of data that does not contain any values, which can happen for various reasons.
  Causes:
  
  Empty Data Source: The data source being queried may not have any data for the selected criteria, leading to empty rows.
  Incorrect Query Design: The query may be designed in such a way that it does not properly filter or aggregate data, resulting in empty rows.
  Data Extraction Issues: There may be issues with the data extraction process, such as missing data in the InfoProvider or issues with the data load process.
  Filters and Variables: If filters or variables are applied to the query, they may be set in a way that excludes all data, leading to empty results.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the underlying data model (like changes in InfoObjects or InfoProviders) may lead to inconsistencies that result in empty rows.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Source: Verify that the data source contains data for the selected criteria. You can do this by running a simple query or report against the data source.
  Review Query Design: Examine the query design in the Query Designer. Ensure that the filters, variables, and aggregations are set correctly to return the expected data.
  Data Load Monitoring: Check the data load process in the Data Warehousing Workbench (transaction RSA1) to ensure that data is being loaded correctly into the InfoProvider.
  Adjust Filters: If filters or variables are applied, try removing or adjusting them to see if data is returned.
  Check for Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model, ensure that all dependencies are updated and that the query is compatible with the current model.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the query execution to identify where the empty row is being generated.
