  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WE004 - No entries corresponding to selection found ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message WE004 - No entries corresponding to selection found:


    Error Message:

    WE004 - No entries corresponding to selection found


    Cause:

    This error occurs when you try to display or process IDoc data (Intermediate Document) in SAP, but the system cannot find any IDoc records matching the selection criteria you have specified.

    Common scenarios include:

    • You are trying to display IDocs in transaction codes like WE02, WE05, or WE19, but no IDocs exist for the given selection parameters (e.g., date range, message type, partner number).
    • The IDocs have not yet been created or processed.
    • The selection criteria are too restrictive or incorrect.
    • The IDocs might have been deleted or archived.
    • The IDoc status or message type you are filtering on does not exist in the system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Selection Criteria:

      • Verify the input parameters such as date range, partner number, message type, IDoc number, or status.
      • Broaden the selection criteria to include a wider range or remove unnecessary filters.
      • Ensure the date range is correct and includes the period when the IDocs were created.
    2. Verify IDoc Creation:

      • Confirm that IDocs have actually been generated for the process you are investigating.
      • Check the relevant application or interface to ensure IDocs are being created.
    3. Check IDoc Status:

      • Sometimes IDocs are in a status that is not included in your selection.
      • Try selecting all statuses or the specific status you expect.
    4. Check Partner Profiles and Message Types:

      • Ensure that the partner profiles and message types are correctly configured and that IDocs are being sent/received for those.
    5. Check Archiving or Deletion:

      • If IDocs have been archived or deleted, they will not appear in the standard IDoc display transactions.
      • Use archiving transactions or check with your Basis/Archive team.
    6. Use Transaction WE09:

      • If you are searching for IDocs by data content, use transaction WE09 to search for IDocs containing specific data segments or values.

    Related Information:

    • Transactions to display IDocs:

      • WE02 - Display IDoc
      • WE05 - IDoc List
      • WE19 - Test tool for IDocs

      • 03 - Data passed to application OK
      • 12 - Dispatch OK
      • 51 - Error in processing
    • SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Check SAP Notes related to IDoc processing and error messages.
      • SAP Help Portal for IDoc basics and troubleshooting.

    Summary:
