• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TW135 - Invalid selection & truncated to & ?

  The SAP error message TW135 "Invalid selection & truncated to &" typically occurs in the context of data selection or processing within SAP, particularly when dealing with selection criteria in reports or transactions. This error indicates that the selection criteria provided are not valid or have been truncated due to some limitations.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Selection Criteria: The selection criteria entered may not conform to the expected format or may reference non-existent values.
  Data Truncation: The system may truncate the input if it exceeds the maximum length allowed for a particular field or selection parameter.
  Field Length Limitations: Certain fields in SAP have defined lengths, and if the input exceeds this length, it may lead to truncation and subsequent errors.
  Incorrect Data Type: The data type of the input may not match the expected type (e.g., entering a string where a number is expected).
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Input Values: Review the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that all values are valid and conform to the expected formats.
  Field Length Verification: Verify the maximum length of the fields you are using for selection. Adjust your input to ensure it does not exceed these limits.
  Data Type Consistency: Ensure that the data types of the inputs match the expected types for the fields you are working with.
  Use of Wildcards: If applicable, consider using wildcards (like * or %) to broaden your selection criteria, but ensure they are used correctly.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the relevant SAP documentation or help files for the specific transaction or report you are using to understand the expected input formats and limitations.
