  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WES_FILTER035 Filter object &1: no explicit filters defined and/or active
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs in SAP when a filter object (identified by &1, which is the filter name or ID) is being used in a process (often in SAP Workflow, SAP Business Workflow, or other filtering scenarios), but no explicit filters have been defined or activated for that filter object.
  In other words, the system expects that the filter object should have some filter criteria or conditions set to restrict or control the data or processing scope, but it finds none. This can happen if:
  
  The filter object was created but no filter conditions were maintained.
  The filter conditions exist but are inactive or not valid.
  The filter object is referenced in a workflow or report but not properly configured.
  
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  In SAP Business Workflow when using filter objects to control workflow
