  The SAP error message RSM2121, which states "Missing selection for InfoPackage &1," typically occurs when you are trying to execute an InfoPackage in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) without having specified the necessary selection criteria. This can happen when you attempt to load data into a DataStore Object (DSO) or InfoCube without defining the selection parameters for the data you want to extract.
  Cause:
  
  No Selection Criteria Defined: The InfoPackage is configured without any selection criteria, which means it does not know which data to extract.
  Incorrect InfoPackage Configuration: The InfoPackage may not be properly set up to include the necessary selections for the data source.
  Data Source Issues: The data source might not be configured correctly, leading to the absence of selection criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Selection Criteria:
  
  Go to the InfoPackage in the SAP BW system.
  Open the InfoPackage and navigate to the "Selection" tab.
  Define the necessary selection criteria for the data you want to extract. This could include date ranges, specific key figures, or other relevant filters.
  
  
  
  Check InfoPackage Settings:
  
  Ensure that the InfoPackage is correctly configured to pull data from the source. Verify that the data source is active and that the extraction method is appropriate.

  Test the Data Source:
  
  Use transaction RSA3 to test the data source directly. This will help you verify if the data source is returning data as expected and if the selection criteria are functioning correctly.
  
  
  
  Review Data Source Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the data source in the source system to ensure that it is set up to allow for the necessary selections.
  
  
  
  Check for Updates:
  
  If you are using a custom extractor, ensure that it is updated and functioning correctly. Sometimes, custom code may need adjustments to work with the latest data structures.
