  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_IV268 - No objects relevant for update selected ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message WZRE_IV268: No objects relevant for update selected:


    Error Message

    WZRE_IV268: No objects relevant for update selected


    Cause

    This error occurs when you attempt to execute a process (such as a mass update, data transfer, or a similar operation) in SAP, but the system finds that no objects or records have been selected that are relevant for the update. In other words, the selection criteria or the input data do not correspond to any objects that can be updated by the transaction or program you are running.

    Common scenarios include:

    • You have not selected any items or objects in the selection screen.
    • The selection criteria are too restrictive or incorrect, resulting in zero objects being found.
    • The objects selected are not flagged or configured as "relevant for update" in the system.
    • The underlying data or master data might be missing or inconsistent.

    Solution

    To resolve this error, consider the following steps:

    1. Check Selection Criteria:

      • Review the selection screen inputs and ensure that you have selected or entered valid objects or records.
      • Loosen or adjust the selection criteria to include more objects if necessary.
    2. Verify Object Relevance:

      • Confirm that the objects you are trying to update are indeed relevant for the update process.
      • Check if the objects are flagged or configured correctly in customizing or master data.
    3. Check Data Consistency:

      • Ensure that the data you are working with exists and is consistent.
      • For example, if you are updating equipment, make sure the equipment master records exist and are active.
    4. Review Authorization:

      • Sometimes, lack of authorization can cause objects to be invisible or inaccessible, resulting in no objects being selected.
      • Verify that you have the necessary permissions.
    5. Debug or Check Logs:

      • If the above steps do not help, debug the program or check application logs to understand why no objects are considered relevant.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search for SAP Notes related to the specific transaction or module you are working with, as there might be known issues or patches.

    Related Information

    • This message is often seen in modules like Plant Maintenance (PM), Customer Service (CS), or other modules where mass updates or data transfers are performed.
    • The message class WZRE is related to update or data transfer processes.
    • Example transactions where this might occur: IW38 (Change PM Orders), mass changes in equipment or functional locations, or custom programs for data updates.
