• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ATL/ASSET164 - No data changed ?

  The SAP error message /ATL/ASSET164 No data changed typically occurs in the context of asset accounting when you attempt to save changes to an asset master record, but the system detects that no actual changes were made to the data. This can happen for several reasons:
  Causes:
  
  No Changes Made: The most straightforward reason is that the user did not make any changes to the asset data before attempting to save.
  Data Validation: The system may have validation rules that prevent saving if the data entered does not meet certain criteria, leading to the perception that no changes were made.
  User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary permissions to make changes to the asset, which can result in the system not allowing any updates.
  Technical Issues: There could be underlying technical issues, such as problems with the database or the application server, that prevent the changes from being recognized.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify Changes: Ensure that you have actually made changes to the asset data. Check all fields to confirm that at least one field has been modified.
  Check for Validation Errors: Review any validation messages or errors that may have occurred prior to the save attempt. Address any issues that may be preventing the data from being saved.
  User Permissions: Confirm that you have the necessary authorizations to modify the asset. If not, contact your system administrator to obtain the required permissions.
  Technical Support: If you suspect a technical issue, consult your IT department or SAP support to investigate any underlying problems with the system.
