Error messages are displayed for Select-options mostly on two conditions:

1) You needs to check wether a value is entered or not its done by:

a)

Select-options:SELECT-OPTIONS: s_fevor FOR afko-fevor Obligatory.

In this case error message is automatically throwed by system.

b) You can do this in Selection Screen events.

Ex:

AT SELECTION-SCREEN./AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON S_FEVOR.
IF S_FEVOR-LOW IS INITIAL.
MESSAGE 'XXXXX' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.

2) You need to Validate the entered value:

You can do this in Selection Screen events.

Ex:

AT SELECTION-SCREEN./AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON S_FEVOR.

SELECT FEVOR
             FROM AFKO
             INTO AFKO-FEVOR
             UP TO 1 ROWS
 ENDSELECT.         
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
MESSAGE 'XXXXX' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.

Use this code !

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON S_FEVOR. " OR AT SELECTION-SCREEN
 SELECT SINGLE FEVOR
               FROM AFKO
               INTO AFKO-FEVOR.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
MESSAGE 'PLEASE ENTER VALUE FOR FEVOR' TYPE 'E'. 
" or you can use message class message - MESSAGE E(000) FROM <CLASS NAME>.
ENDIF.

when you declare select options as obligatory system will throw error but if you want to validate the date entered you need to use at selection screen. Depends on your requirement.
