• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /NFM/CA010 - No data exists for selection entered ?

  The SAP error message /NFM/CA010 No data exists for selection entered typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction in the SAP system, but the selection criteria they have entered do not match any existing data in the database. This can happen in various contexts, such as when querying for financial data, materials, or other records.
  Causes:
  
  
  Incorrect Selection Criteria: The most common cause is that the user has entered selection criteria that do not correspond to any records in the database. This could be due to:
  
  Typographical errors in the input fields.
  Using incorrect date ranges.
  Filtering by fields that do not have any corresponding data.
  
  
  
  Data Not Yet Created: The data you are trying to access may not have been created yet. For example, if you are looking for financial postings for a specific period, and no postings have been made for that period, you will receive this error.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: In some cases, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view certain data, leading to the appearance that no data exists.
  
  
  Data Deletion: The data you are trying to access may have been deleted or archived, making it unavailable for the current selection.
