    SAP Error Message:
    WER177 - Clearing cannot be performed, no element is currently loaded
    
    
    Cause: This error occurs when you attempt to perform a clearing operation in SAP (usually in the context of financial accounting, such as clearing open items in accounts receivable or accounts payable), but the system does not have any line item or document loaded to clear. Essentially, the clearing transaction expects that you have selected or loaded at least one open item or document to be cleared, but none is currently available or selected. Common scenarios causing this error include: No open items have been selected or loaded for clearing. The selection criteria used to fetch open items returned no results. The document or line item you are trying to clear is already cleared or does not exist. Incorrect transaction usage or missing steps before clearing.
    Solution: Load Open Items Properly: Before performing clearing, ensure that you have correctly loaded the open items. Use the appropriate selection criteria
