  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC522: Select at least one value of characteristic &1
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or SAP Variant Configuration (VC) when a user tries to execute a function (such as a selection, planning, or configuration step) without specifying any value for a required characteristic. The system expects at least one value to be selected for the characteristic referenced by &1 (which will be replaced by the actual characteristic name in the message).
  In other words, the characteristic is mandatory for the process, and the absence of any selected value leads to this error.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  During product configuration in SAP VC when a characteristic is mandatory but no value is selected.
  In APO during planning or selection steps where characteristic values are used as filters or input parameters.
  When running reports or planning heuristics that require characteristic values for filtering or processing.
