• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSSEM_RFC_INFOPROV202 - No packages were selected ?

  The SAP error message RSSEM_RFC_INFOPROV202: No packages were selected typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when trying to execute a data extraction or data transfer process, particularly when using Remote Function Calls (RFC) to extract data from an InfoProvider.
  Cause:
  The error message indicates that the system did not find any data packages to process. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  No Data Available: The InfoProvider you are trying to extract data from may not have any data available for the specified selection criteria.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in the extraction process may be too restrictive, resulting in no data being selected.
  Data Load Issues: There may have been issues during previous data loads that resulted in no data being available in the InfoProvider.
  Configuration Issues: There could be configuration issues with the InfoProvider or the data source that prevent data from being selected.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the extraction may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Data Availability:
  
  Verify that there is data in the InfoProvider for the time period and selection criteria you are using. You can do this by running a query or checking the data directly in the InfoProvider.
  
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria:
  
  Review the selection criteria used in the extraction process. Ensure that they are not too restrictive and that they match the data you expect to extract.
  
  
  
  Check Data Load Status:
  
  Check the status of previous data loads to ensure that data has been successfully loaded into the InfoProvider. You can use transaction codes like RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to monitor data loads.
  
  
  
  Validate Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the InfoProvider and data source are correctly configured. Check for any inconsistencies or errors in the configuration.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Ensure that the user executing the extraction has the necessary authorizations to access the InfoProvider and the data.
  
  
  
  Test with Different Parameters:
  
  If possible, try running the extraction with different parameters or a broader selection to see if any data is returned.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like RSA1 for data warehousing, RSMO for monitoring data loads, and RSRT for running queries.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP BW documentation for detailed information on InfoProviders, data extraction, and troubleshooting.
