The SAP error message
/ISDFPS/PM_DIS297 No equipment found
typically occurs in the context of the SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) module, particularly when trying to access or process equipment-related data. This error indicates that the system could not find any equipment records that match the criteria specified in the transaction or report you are executing.Causes:
- Incorrect Selection Criteria: The selection criteria you are using (such as plant, equipment number, or status) may not match any existing equipment records in the system.
- Data Not Maintained: There may be no equipment records created in the system for the specified plant or location.
- Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the equipment data.

Solutions:
- Check Selection Criteria: Review the selection criteria you are using to ensure they are correct. Make sure you are searching in the right plant and using the correct equipment number or other identifiers.
- Verify Equipment Records: Use transaction codes like IE03 (Display Equipment) or IL03 (Display Functional Location) to check if the equipment exists in the system. If it does not, you may need to create it.
- Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access equipment data. This may involve checking roles and permissions in the SAP system.

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.
