    The SAP error message /SCF/CL_SNC_MESSAGES012 indicates that a selection variant has been successfully deleted. This is not an error in the traditional sense, but rather an informational message confirming that the deletion process was completed successfully.

    Cause:

    • The message is triggered when a user or a program deletes a selection variant in the SAP system. A selection variant is typically used to save specific selection criteria for reports or transactions, allowing users to quickly access frequently used settings.

    Solution:

    Since this message indicates a successful deletion, there is no action required to resolve an error. However, if the deletion was unintentional and you need to restore the selection variant, you will need to recreate it manually. Here are the steps to do so:

      • Navigate to the transaction or report where the selection variant was used.
      • Enter the selection criteria that you want to save.
      • Click on the "Variants" button (often represented by a disk icon or similar).
      • Choose "Save as Variant" and provide a name and description for the new variant.
      • Save the variant.
    2. Check for Backup:

      • If you have a backup or documentation of the selection criteria, you can use that to recreate the variant accurately.
    3. User Training:

      • If the deletion was accidental, consider providing training or guidelines to users on how to manage selection variants to prevent future accidental deletions.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Depending on the context, you might be using transaction codes like SE38 (ABAP Editor) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to manage reports and variants.
    • Authorization: Ensure that users have the appropriate authorizations to create, modify, or delete selection variants to prevent unauthorized changes.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes or the SAP Help Portal for any updates or additional information related to selection variants and their management.
