• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZRE_LIST023 - Function not allowed (use button Dynamic Selections) ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZRE_LIST023 Function not allowed (use button Dynamic Selections)
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a user tries to perform a function or enter selection criteria in a report or transaction that does not allow direct input or modification in the standard selection screen fields. Instead, the system expects the user to use the Dynamic Selections button to specify additional or complex selection criteria.
  In many SAP reports, especially those based on logical databases or standard selection screens, certain fields or functions are restricted from direct input to maintain data consistency and performance. The Dynamic Selections button opens a special dialog that allows users to specify more flexible and complex selection criteria.
  
  Explanation:
  
  The error is triggered because the user attempted to enter or modify selection criteria in a way that is not permitted on the standard selection screen.
  The system enforces the use of the Dynamic Selections dialog for such criteria.
  This is a standard SAP behavior to guide users to the correct method of entering complex selections.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Use the Dynamic Selections Button:
  
  On the selection screen of the report or transaction, locate and click the Dynamic Selections button (usually found near the selection fields or at the bottom of the screen).
  In the Dynamic Selections dialog, specify the required selection criteria.
  Execute the report again.
  
  
  
  Avoid Direct Input in Restricted Fields:
  
  Do not try to enter values directly into fields that are disabled or marked as not allowed.
  Always use the provided Dynamic Selections interface for such fields.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization and Customization:
  
  If the Dynamic Selections button is not visible or not working, check if the user has the necessary authorizations.
  Also, verify if the report or transaction has been customized or modified in a way that restricts dynamic selections.
  
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Dynamic Selections is a standard SAP feature that allows users to specify additional selection criteria beyond the standard selection screen.
  This feature is commonly used in reports based on logical databases (LDBs) or complex data retrieval programs.
  The error message WZRE_LIST023 is a standard message in SAP and can be found in the message class WZRE_LIST.
  For developers: If you are creating or modifying reports, ensure that selection criteria that require dynamic selections are properly handled using the SELECT-OPTIONS and SELECT-OPTIONS with dynamic selections logic.
