  SAP Error Message: WG227
  Message Text:
  
  Please maintain at least one further selection parameter
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in SAP when you are trying to execute a function (often related to delivery processing, picking, or warehouse management) that requires more specific selection criteria, but you have provided insufficient or too broad selection parameters.
  For example, when you run a report, transaction, or process that involves selecting deliveries, picking lists, or warehouse tasks, SAP expects you to narrow down the selection by specifying at least one additional parameter (such as delivery date, warehouse number, shipping point, material number, etc.). If you leave these fields empty or only provide very general criteria, the system cannot process the request and throws this error.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  During picking or delivery selection in Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
  When generating picking lists or transfer orders.
  When running reports or transactions that require filtering of large data sets.
  In transactions like VL06O, LT03, or other delivery/picking related transactions.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Maintain at least one additional selection parameter:
  
  Add more specific criteria in the selection screen. For example:
  
  Delivery date or date range
  Shipping point
  Warehouse number
  Material number
  Customer or vendor number
  Document number range
  
  
  
  Check the selection screen fields:
  
  Review which fields are mandatory or recommended for the transaction you are running. SAP often requires at least one of these fields to be filled to avoid processing huge data volumes.
  
  
  Use appropriate filters:
  
  Narrow down your selection to a manageable subset of data to avoid performance issues and to comply with system requirements.
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  This message is a safeguard to prevent system overload or unintentional processing of very large data sets.
  If you are unsure which parameters to use, consult the transaction documentation or your SAP functional consultant.
  Sometimes, the selection screen can be customized by your SAP administrator to make certain fields mandatory or optional.
  If you believe you have provided sufficient parameters but still get the error, check for user exits or enhancements that might enforce additional checks.
