  Error Message
  WSFP_MESSAGE019: No data selected for manual transfer
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in SAP Workflow when you attempt to manually transfer workflow tasks or work items, but the system does not find any eligible or selected data (work items) to transfer.
  Common reasons include:
  
  No workflow tasks are currently assigned to the user or the user does not have any tasks selected for transfer.
  The selection criteria or filters applied in the manual transfer screen do not match any existing work items.
  The work items may already be completed, withdrawn, or otherwise not available for transfer.
  The user might be trying to transfer tasks that are not allowed to be transferred manually due to workflow configuration or authorization restrictions.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Work Item Availability:
  
  Verify that there are active workflow tasks assigned to the user.
  Use transaction codes like SBWP (SAP Business Workplace) or SWI1 (Work Item Selection) to check for existing work items.
  
  
  
  Review Selection Criteria:
  
  When performing manual transfer (e.g., via transaction SWIA or SWI2_FREQ), ensure that the selection criteria are correct and not overly restrictive.
  Remove or adjust filters to broaden the search for work items.
  
  
  
  Verify Authorization:
  
  Confirm that the user has the necessary authorizations to transfer workflow tasks.
  Check roles and authorizations related to workflow processing (e.g., S_WF_WI).
  
  
  
  Check Workflow Status:
  
  Ensure the work items are in a status that allows manual transfer.
  Completed or withdrawn tasks cannot be transferred.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Transaction for Manual Transfer:
  
  Use the appropriate SAP transaction for manual transfer of workflow tasks, such as SWIA (Work Item Administration).
  Follow the correct procedure to select and transfer tasks.
  
  
  
  Consult Workflow Logs:
  
  Use transaction SWI1 or SWI2_DIAG to analyze workflow logs and identify any issues with the work items.

  SAP Notes:

  Authorization Objects:
  
  S_WF_WI - Workflow: Work Item
  S_WF_BPT - Workflow: Business Process Type
  
  
  
  Workflow Concepts:
  
  Manual transfer allows a user to transfer their workflow tasks to another user.
  Tasks must be active and assigned to the user performing the transfer.
  
  
  
  
  If after these checks the problem persists, it may be necessary to debug the workflow or consult with your SAP Basis/Workflow administrator for deeper analysis.
  
  Summary:
  
  The error "No data selected for manual transfer" means no eligible workflow tasks were found for transfer. Verify task availability, selection criteria, authorizations, and workflow status to resolve the issue.
