This error indicates that the system requires you to specify an InfoPackage or an InfoPackage group before proceeding with the data loading or extraction process.
  Cause:

  Navigate to the appropriate transaction (e.g., RSA1 for Data Warehousing Workbench).
  Go to the DataSource or InfoProvider where you want to load data.
