• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message >W104 - No &1 found ?

  The SAP error message W104 No &1 found typically indicates that a specific object or record that the system is trying to access or process cannot be found. The &1 placeholder usually represents the name of the object or record that is missing, such as a material number, vendor, customer, or other entity.
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent Record: The most common cause is that the record you are trying to access does not exist in the database. This could be due to a typo in the input or the record being deleted or never created.
  Incorrect Configuration: The system may not be configured correctly to recognize the object you are trying to access.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary permissions to view or access the record.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was recently migrated or imported, there may have been errors in the process that resulted in missing records.
  Selection Criteria: The selection criteria used in a report or transaction may be too restrictive, leading to no records being found.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Input Values: Verify that the input values (like material number, vendor ID, etc.) are correct and exist in the system.
  Search for the Record: Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE16N to search for the record in the relevant database table to confirm its existence.
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the necessary configurations are in place for the object you are trying to access.
  Check Authorizations: Make sure that the user has the appropriate authorizations to access the record. This can be checked with the help of your SAP security team.
  Data Consistency: If the issue arose after a data migration, check for data consistency and integrity. You may need to re-import or correct the data.
  Adjust Selection Criteria: If you are running a report or transaction, try broadening the selection criteria to see if any records are returned.
