• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC624 - Select at least one valid variant ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WRF_APC624: Select at least one valid variant
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you attempt to execute a report, planning run, or process in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or related modules, and the system requires you to select at least one valid variant for the operation. Variants in SAP are predefined sets of input parameters for reports or planning runs. If no variant is selected or the selected variant is invalid (e.g., deleted, inactive, or incorrectly maintained), the system throws this error.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  When running planning runs or reports in SAP APO (e.g., SNP, DP, PP/DS).
  When executing a process that requires a variant selection but none is chosen.
  When the variant selected does not exist or is not valid for the current context.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Select a Valid Variant:
  
  When prompted, ensure you select at least one variant that is valid and active.
  Check the list of available variants and pick the appropriate one.
  
  
  
  Check Variant Maintenance:
  
  Go to transaction SE38 or the relevant planning run transaction.
  Use the variant maintenance option to verify if the variant exists and is correctly defined.
  If the variant is missing or corrupted, recreate or correct it.
  
  
  
  Create a New Variant:
  
  If no suitable variant exists, create a new one with the required parameters.
  Save the variant and then select it when running the process.
  
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Ensure you have the necessary authorizations to use or create variants.
  
  
  
  Check for System or Custom Code Issues:
  
  If the error persists despite selecting a valid variant, check for any custom enhancements or user exits that might interfere with variant selection.
  Review SAP Notes or OSS messages related to WRF_APC624 for any known bugs or patches.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Summary:
