• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VHUMI138 - No selection criteria for the batch inspection was found ?

  The SAP error message VHUMI138 indicates that there are no selection criteria for batch inspection found in the system. This typically occurs in the context of batch management and quality inspection processes within SAP.
  Cause:
  The error can arise due to several reasons, including:
  
  Missing Inspection Lot Creation: The inspection lot may not have been created properly, or there may be no batches available for inspection.
  Batch Characteristics Not Defined: The characteristics for the batch inspection may not be defined in the system, leading to a lack of selection criteria.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for batch management or quality management may not be set up correctly.
  Selection Criteria Not Maintained: The selection criteria for the batch inspection might not have been maintained in the relevant configuration settings.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Inspection Lot: Ensure that an inspection lot has been created for the batch you are trying to inspect. You can do this by navigating to the inspection lot management transaction (e.g., QA32) and verifying the status of the inspection lot.
  
  
  Review Batch Characteristics: Verify that the necessary batch characteristics are defined in the system. You can check this in the batch master data (transaction code MSC2N) to ensure that the relevant characteristics are assigned.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: Review the configuration settings for batch management and quality management. Ensure that the settings for batch inspection are correctly configured. This can be done in the SPRO transaction under:
  
  Quality Management > Quality Inspection > Inspection Lot Creation > Define Selection Criteria for Inspection Lots.
  
  
  
  Maintain Selection Criteria: If the selection criteria for batch inspection are missing, you may need to maintain them. This can involve defining the criteria that should be used for selecting batches for inspection.
  
  
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform batch inspections and access the relevant data.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If the issue persists, consult SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as QA32 (Display Inspection Lots), MSC2N (Change Batch), and SPRO (SAP Project Reference Object).
  Batch Management: Understand the principles of batch management in SAP, including how batches are created, managed, and inspected.
  Quality Management: Review the quality management processes in SAP, particularly how inspection lots are created and managed.
