SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UCR0 - Messages for Reporting of Transaction Data

• Message number: 011

• Message text: Selection criteria unsuitable with regards to fiscal year/period

What causes this issue?

The present query contains a characteristic with the role <ZK>
consolidation group</>.
In this case, the system uses the fiscal year and period to determine
the composition of consolidation units in the consolidation group. The
selection condition of the report is not valid with regards to the
fiscal year and period.
The structures and limited key figures in the query have been defined to
accommodate at least three cells (or rows or columns). The selection
conditions of these cells overlap with regards to the consolidation
group, version, fiscal year, and period. Two or more of these cells (but
not all of the cells) contain the highest fiscal year that was specified
and the highest period that was specified. If no period was specified,
the system uses the value 16 for the period.
Example:
You want to portray consolidation group data for fiscal year nnnn in
three columns. You want these columns to show the following period
values:
Period 1
Period 2
Periods 1 - 2

System Response

Termination

How to fix this error?

Do one of the following:
Employ the characteristics <ZK>reference fiscal year</> and <ZK>
reference period</>.
In the aforementioned example, you could assign reference period 1 to
column 1, and the reference period 2 to the other two columns; or you
could assign reference period 2 to all three columns.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

Simplify the selection condition so that the cells with the same maximum
fiscal year and the same maximum period no longer overlap; and utilize
the cell or column calculation option in the query.
In the aforementioned example, you could define the third column as the
sum of the first two columns.
