• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WAB172 - No data available for parallel processing. &1 selected ?

  The SAP error message WAB172: No data available for parallel processing. &1 selected typically occurs in the context of parallel processing in SAP, particularly when the system is trying to execute a task that requires data to be processed in parallel but finds that there is no data available for the specified selection criteria.
  Cause:
  
  No Data Matching Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the selection criteria specified do not match any records in the database. This can happen if the filters applied are too restrictive or if there are simply no records that meet the criteria.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the parallel processing settings or the job itself.
  Data Availability: The data might not be loaded or available in the system at the time the job is executed.

  Solution:
  
  Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria used for the parallel processing job. Ensure that they are correct and that there are records in the database that match these criteria.
  Data Availability: Verify that the data you expect to process is available in the system. You can do this by running a query or report with the same selection criteria to see if any records are returned.
  Job Configuration: Check the configuration of the parallel processing job. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that all necessary parameters are defined.
  Run in Non-Parallel Mode: If applicable, try running the job in a non-parallel mode to see if it processes the data correctly. This can help identify if the issue is specifically related to parallel processing.
  Check Logs: Review the job logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about why no data is available.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to the specific transaction or process you are working with for any known issues or additional troubleshooting steps.
