• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/LOC099 - No change documents for specified selection ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/LOC099 No change documents for specified selection typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when a user attempts to access change documents for a specific selection, but the system cannot find any relevant change documents.
  Cause:
  
  
  No Change Documents Exist: The most common reason for this error is that there are simply no change documents available for the specified selection criteria. This could be due to the fact that no changes have been made to the relevant data since the change documents were last generated.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used to retrieve the change documents may be too restrictive or incorrect, leading to no results being found.
  
  
  Data Deletion: Change documents may have been deleted or archived, making them unavailable for retrieval.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the change documents, although this typically results in a different error message.

  Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria you are using to ensure they are correct and not overly restrictive. Try broadening the criteria to see if any change documents can be retrieved.

  Review Data Changes: If you expect change documents to exist, verify that changes have indeed been made to the relevant data. If no changes have been made, there will be no change documents to display.
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team: If you suspect that change documents may have been deleted or archived, consult with your SAP Basis team to check the status of the change documents and whether any data retention policies are affecting their availability.
