• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSEC265 - Select one row only or choose by double-clicking ?

  The SAP error message RSEC265, which states "Select one row only or choose by double-clicking," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when a user is trying to select or manipulate data in a report or query. This error indicates that the system expects the user to select a single row of data, but multiple rows have been selected or the selection method is incorrect.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Selections: The user may have selected multiple rows in a report or query where only a single row is allowed.
  Incorrect Selection Method: The user may be trying to select a row using a method that does not conform to the expected interaction (e.g., clicking instead of double-clicking).

  Solution:
  
  Select a Single Row: Ensure that you are selecting only one row of data. If you have selected multiple rows, deselect the additional rows and try again.
  Use Double-Click: If the system prompts you to double-click, do so on the desired row to select it. This method is often required in SAP interfaces to indicate a specific selection.
  Check Query Settings: If you are consistently facing this issue, check the settings of the query or report. It may be necessary to adjust the design to allow for multiple selections if that is appropriate for your use case.
