Message type: E = Error
Message class: TB - SM31 table maintenance messages
Message number: 849
Message text: Your selection conditions correspond to at most one entry
You specified selection conditions for a single entry and not for a key
area.
The system will, at most, select one entry, because you have not
specified a key area.
If you want to select a key area, enter a key pattern that is generic
at the right-hand end. This means that the generic search character '*'
may only occur as the last character in the key pattern (like the key
pattern for a transport request entry). Note also that an empty space
before the entire key pattern is interpreted as a sequence of spaces,
and not as a placeholder for any characters.
The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

- Your selection conditions correspond to at most one entry ?The SAP error message TB849 ("Your selection conditions correspond to at most one entry") typically occurs when you are trying to execute a transaction or report that requires a selection of data, but the criteria you have specified in your selection screen result in either no entries or only one entry being found in the database.
