• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_MASS_MATERIAL010 - No data selected; selection criteria were not changed ?

  The SAP error message WRF_MASS_MATERIAL010 indicates that no data was selected for processing, and the selection criteria used in the transaction or report were not changed. This error typically occurs in the context of mass changes to material master data, particularly when using transaction codes like MM17 or similar mass maintenance transactions.
  Cause:
  
  No Matching Records: The selection criteria you have set do not match any existing records in the database. This could be due to overly restrictive filters or incorrect values.
  Selection Criteria Not Changed: The system is indicating that the selection criteria you have entered have not been modified since the last execution, which means it is trying to execute the same query that returned no results previously.
  Data Locking: If the data you are trying to access is locked by another user or process, it may not be available for selection.
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations to view or modify the material data can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Selection Criteria: Double-check the selection criteria you have entered. Ensure that they are correct and that they match the data you expect to find. You may want to broaden the criteria to see if any records are returned.
  Change Selection Criteria: Modify the selection criteria slightly and re-execute the transaction. This can help in refreshing the query and potentially retrieving data.
  Check Data Availability: Use other transactions (like MM03) to verify that the materials you are trying to select actually exist in the system and meet the criteria you are using.
  Check for Locks: If you suspect that the data might be locked, you can check the lock entries using transaction SM12 to see if another user is currently editing the same data.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to access and modify the material data. You may need to consult with your SAP security team if you suspect authorization issues.
