  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/CIF088 No objects were sent typically occurs in the context of the Core Interface (CIF) when there are no objects available for transfer between SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) and the SAP ERP system. This can happen during the CIF integration process when the system attempts to send data but finds that there are no relevant objects to process.
  Causes:
  
  No Data to Transfer: There may simply be no data available for the specific object types that are being processed. This can happen if the data has not been created or if it has been deleted.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria defined for the CIF transfer may be too restrictive, resulting in no objects being selected for transfer.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the CIF settings that prevent the correct objects from being identified for transfer.
  Data Filters: Filters applied in the CIF settings may exclude all objects from being sent.
  Synchronization Issues: There may be synchronization issues between the APO and ERP systems, leading to a lack of data.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there are indeed objects available for transfer in the source system. Ensure that the relevant master data and transactional data exist.
