How to fix this error?

Determine which requirement coverage requests are to be selected:
If you set the indicator "Open requirement coverage requests only", the
system will list those requests whose required quantity exceeds the
quantity ordered or withdrawn.
If you set the indicator "Closed requirement coverage requests only",
the system will list those requests whose quantity required is less
than or equal to the quantity ordered or withdrawn.
If you set both indicators, the system will select both open and closed
requirement coverage requests.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W5015 - Pass on the desired status when calling up the method ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  W5015 - Pass on the desired status when calling up the method
  
  Cause:
  This warning message typically occurs when a method in an ABAP class or function module is called without passing the required status parameter or with an incorrect status value. The method expects a specific status (often related to processing status, document status, or internal state) to be passed as an argument, but it is missing or invalid.
  In many SAP standard or custom object-oriented developments, methods that change or check the status of an object require the caller to explicitly pass the desired status. If this is omitted, the system issues the W5015 warning to remind the developer to provide the status explicitly.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Pass the required status parameter explicitly when calling the method.
  
  Review the method signature and ensure that the status parameter is provided with a valid value.
  
  
  Check the method documentation to understand what status values are expected.
  
  The status might be an enumerated type, a constant, or a specific string/int value representing the status.
  
  
  Modify the calling code to include the status parameter. For example:
  CALL METHOD object->method_name
    EXPORTING
      status = desired_status
      other_parameters = ...
  
  
  If the status is optional but recommended, consider passing the current or intended status to avoid the warning.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  This message is a warning (W message), so it does not stop program execution but indicates a best practice or potential issue.
  
  
  Common in status management scenarios such as workflow processing, document status updates, or state machine implementations.
  
  
  Check SAP Notes or documentation related to the specific method or class you are using for more details on the expected status values.
  
  
  If this occurs in a standard SAP module, consult the module's developer documentation or SAP support for guidance on the correct status values.
  
  
  
  Summary:
  
  Cause: Method called without passing the required status parameter.  
  Solution: Pass the desired status explicitly when calling the method.  
  Additional: Review method documentation and ensure correct status values are used.
