Document Status: The sales document may be in a status that is not included in the selection criteria (e.g., it may be archived or deleted).
Solution:
Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria or range settings in the transaction or report you are using. Ensure that the sales document number you are trying to access falls within the specified range.
Verify Document Number: Double-check the sales document number for any typographical errors. Ensure that you are using the correct number.
Adjust Filters: If you are using a report or a Fiori app, try adjusting the filters or selection parameters to include a broader range of document numbers.
Consult Documentation: If you are using a specific SAP module or Fiori app, refer to the relevant documentation or help resources to understand the expected input and selection criteria.
Check Document Status: Ensure that the sales document is active and not in a status that would exclude it from the selection (e.g., archived).

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
