• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WP3ROLES020 - No suitable data found ?

  The SAP error message WP3ROLES020: No suitable data found typically occurs in the context of Workforce Planning (WFP) or Personnel Planning within SAP HR (Human Resources) or SAP SuccessFactors modules. This message indicates that the system could not find any relevant or suitable data for the requested operation, often related to roles, positions, or organizational assignments.
  
  Cause
  
  Missing or incomplete master data: The system is trying to retrieve role-related data (e.g., organizational roles, positions, or employee assignments), but the relevant data does not exist or is incomplete.
  Incorrect selection criteria: The input parameters or selection criteria used in the transaction or report do not match any existing data.
  Data not maintained in the system: For example, no roles have been assigned to a position or organizational unit.
  Authorization issues: The user might not have the necessary permissions to view the data, causing the system to behave as if no data exists.
  Integration or data replication issues: In integrated environments (e.g., between SAP ERP HCM and SuccessFactors), data might not have been replicated or synchronized properly.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Master Data:
  
  Verify that the relevant organizational units, positions, and roles are correctly maintained in the system.
  Use transactions like PPOME (Organizational Management) or PO13 (Maintain Position) to check if roles are assigned properly.
  Ensure that the employee or position has the required role assignments.
  
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria:
  
  Confirm that the input parameters (dates, organizational units, roles, etc.) are correct and correspond to existing data.
  Try broadening the selection criteria to see if any data is returned.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the data.
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error to check for missing authorizations.
  
  
  
  Data Synchronization:
  
  If using integrated systems, ensure that data replication jobs (e.g., CIF, middleware) have run successfully.
  Check for any errors in data transfer or synchronization.
  
  
  
  Debugging / Logs:
  
  If the issue persists, enable debugging or check application logs to identify where the data retrieval fails.
  Look for notes or patches from SAP related to this message.
