  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_ARTICLELIST068 No selection criteria found - please maintain them
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to execute a report, transaction, or function module related to article or material lists (often in Retail or Merchandise Management modules) without specifying any selection criteria.
