• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SV058 - The selected entries are new and have no original ?

  The SAP error message SV058 ("The selected entries are new and have no original") typically occurs in the context of document processing, particularly when dealing with document changes or updates in SAP systems. This error indicates that the entries you are trying to process are new and do not have any original entries to reference or modify.
  Cause:
  
  New Entries: The entries you are trying to work with are newly created and have not been saved or posted yet. Therefore, there are no original documents to refer to.
  Incorrect Document Type: You may be trying to perform an operation that is not applicable to new entries, such as trying to reverse or change a document that has not been finalized.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with the data integrity or the way the entries were created, leading to the system not recognizing them as valid original entries.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Document Status: Ensure that the entries you are trying to process have been saved or posted correctly. If they are still in a draft or temporary state, you may need to finalize them first.
  Review Entry Type: Verify that you are using the correct transaction or function for the type of entries you are working with. If you are trying to reverse or change a document, ensure that it is an existing document and not a new one.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for the specific transaction you are using to understand the expected workflow and requirements.
  Error Handling: If you believe the entries should have originals, check for any data integrity issues or errors during the entry creation process. You may need to consult with your SAP administrator or support team to investigate further.
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use the appropriate transaction codes to check the status of the entries (e.g., FB03 for displaying documents, FB02 for changing documents).
