  SAP Error Message:
  
  WR117 - Report can only be executed online for one plant. See long text.
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to execute a report that is designed to run online for only one plant at a time, but you have selected multiple plants or a range of plants in the selection screen. The report logic restricts execution to a single plant because it likely processes data or displays output that is plant-specific and cannot handle multiple plants simultaneously.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The report is programmed to work online (interactive mode) and expects a single plant as input.
  Selecting multiple plants or a plant range violates this assumption.
  The system throws this error to prevent inconsistent or incorrect processing.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Select only one plant in the selection screen when running the report.
  If you need to process multiple plants, run the report multiple times, each time for a different single plant.
  Alternatively, check if there is a batch or background version of the report that supports multiple plants.
  Review the report documentation or contact the report developer to see if an enhanced version exists or if the report can be modified to handle multiple plants.
  
  
  Related Information:
