• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_CUS_IMG017 - Choose at least one project for the where-used list ?

  The SAP error message S_CUS_IMG017, which states "Choose at least one project for the where-used list," typically occurs when you are trying to access the "Where-Used List" functionality in the SAP system without having selected a project. This error is common in the context of customizing and configuration activities within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of a selected project in the context of the "Where-Used List" functionality. The "Where-Used List" is a tool that allows users to see where specific objects (like configuration settings, programs, or data elements) are used within the system. To generate this list, the system requires a project to be specified, as the where-used list is often project-specific.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Select a Project:
  
  Navigate to the relevant transaction or screen where you encountered the error.
  Look for a field or option to select a project. This is usually a dropdown or selection box.
  Choose at least one project from the list of available projects.
  
  
  
  Check Project Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the project you are selecting is correctly assigned and active. You may need to check the project settings or consult with your SAP administrator if you do not see any projects listed.
  
  
  
  Access the Where-Used List Again:
  
  After selecting a project, attempt to access the "Where-Used List" functionality again. The error should no longer appear if a project is properly selected.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: The error may occur in various transaction codes related to customizing, such as SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object) or SE80 (Object Navigator).
  Project Management: In SAP, projects are often used to manage changes and customizations. Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and select projects.
  User Roles and Authorizations: If you are unable to see any projects, check with your SAP security team to ensure that your user role has the necessary permissions to access the projects.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for further assistance.
