• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMB/TDL_FACT_MESS009 - BUFFER: No data transferred ?

  The SAP error message /SCMB/TDL_FACT_MESS009 BUFFER: No data transferred typically occurs in the context of the SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) module, particularly when dealing with the Transfer Data Load (TDL) process. This error indicates that the system attempted to transfer data, but no data was available to be transferred.
  Causes:
  
  Empty Data Set: The most common cause is that the data set intended for transfer is empty. This could happen if the selection criteria used to fetch the data do not match any records in the database.
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The filters or selection criteria applied during the data extraction process may be too restrictive, leading to no records being selected.
  Data Load Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the data load process, such as incorrect settings in the data source or target.
  Timing Issues: If the data load process is executed before the relevant data is available in the source system, it may result in this error.
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations to access the data can also lead to this error, as the system may not be able to retrieve the necessary records.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there is data available in the source system that meets the selection criteria. You can run a query or report to confirm this.
  Review Selection Criteria: Reassess the selection criteria used in the data load process. Ensure that they are not overly restrictive and that they align with the data you expect to transfer.
  Configuration Review: Check the configuration settings for the data load process. Ensure that the source and target settings are correctly defined.
  Timing Adjustments: If the data is not yet available, consider scheduling the data load process to run at a later time when the data is expected to be present.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user executing the data load has the necessary authorizations to access the data in the source system.
