  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W9010 - No items for reorganization found in selection period ?

    SAP Error Message:
    W9010 No items for reorganization found in selection period


    Cause:

    This warning message appears when you attempt to run a reorganization program or report in SAP (often related to archiving or data cleanup), but the system does not find any data items that meet the selection criteria or fall within the specified selection period.

    In other words, the system searched for data objects (e.g., documents, logs, or master data) that are eligible for reorganization or archiving based on the input parameters (such as date range, document type, status), but none were found.


    Typical Scenarios:

    • Running a data archiving object reorganization step (e.g., for FI documents, SD documents, or other application data).
    • Executing cleanup or reorganization jobs for logs, change documents, or other database tables.
    • Specifying a selection period (date range) where no data exists or all data has already been processed.

    Solution:

    1. Check Selection Criteria:

      • Verify the date range or selection period you entered.
      • Ensure that the period actually contains data eligible for reorganization.
      • Expand the date range if necessary.
    2. Check Data Status:

      • Confirm that there are data objects in the system that require reorganization.
      • For archiving, check if the data has already been archived or reorganized.
    3. Check Object and Variant:

      • Make sure you are using the correct archiving object or reorganization program.
      • Verify the variant or selection parameters used for the run.
    4. Check Prerequisites:

      • For archiving, ensure that the write step has been completed successfully before running the reorganization step.
      • If the write step was not executed or failed, no data will be available for reorganization.
    5. Run Reports to Verify Data:

      • Use SAP standard reports or transaction codes to check if data exists for the given criteria.
      • For example, use transaction SARA (Archive Administration) to check the status of archiving objects.
    6. Consult Logs:

      • Review job logs or application logs for more detailed information.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction SARA: Used for managing archiving objects, including write, delete, and reorganization steps.
    • Archiving Objects: Each object has specific steps and prerequisites; the reorganization step typically deletes data from the database after archiving.
    • SAP Notes: Sometimes SAP releases notes or patches related to archiving or reorganization issues.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP Help Portal or SAP Library for detailed instructions on archiving and reorganization for specific modules.

    Summary:

    The message W9010 No items for reorganization found in selection period means that the system did not find any data matching your selection criteria for reorganization. To resolve it, verify your selection parameters, ensure data exists for the period, and confirm that prerequisite steps (like the write step in archiving) have been completed.


    If you provide the specific module or archiving object you are working with, I can give more tailored advice.
