  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_ADMIN001 - All work items that satisfy your selection criteria ?

    The SAP error message SWF_ADMIN001 typically indicates that there are no work items that match the selection criteria you have specified in the workflow administration tool. This message is often encountered when trying to display or manage work items in the SAP Business Workflow environment.

    Cause:

    1. No Matching Work Items: The most straightforward cause is that there are simply no work items in the system that meet the criteria you have set (e.g., user, status, date range).
    2. Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria you have entered may be too restrictive or incorrect, leading to no results being returned.
    3. Work Items Processed or Deleted: The work items you are looking for may have already been processed, completed, or deleted from the system.
    4. Authorization Issues: You may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain work items, which could lead to an empty result set.

    Solution:

    1. Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria you have entered. Make sure they are not too restrictive and that you are searching for the correct parameters.
    2. Broaden Search Parameters: If you are using specific filters (like user ID, status, or date), try broadening these filters to see if any work items appear.
    3. Check Workflow Instances: Ensure that there are active workflow instances in the system. You can do this by checking the workflow logs or monitoring tools.
    4. Check User Authorizations: Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to view the work items. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to ensure you have the right permissions.
    5. Use Alternative Tools: If you are still unable to find the work items, consider using other transaction codes or tools (like SWI1, SWI2_FREQ, or SWI6) to search for work items.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes for workflow management, such as:
      • SWI1: Work Item Selection
      • SWI2: Work Item Selection with Selection Criteria
      • SWI6: Work Item Overview
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to workflow management and error messages.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on workflow administration and troubleshooting.

    If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or Workflow team for further investigation.
