  The SAP error message AIS_STDREP044 indicates that there is an issue with the definition of key figures in a report or analysis.

This is a common issue when working with SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP Analytics.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Key Figures Defined: The error typically arises when you have defined more than one key figure of the same category (RAK1 or RAV1) in your report or query. SAP restricts the use of multiple key figures of the same category to avoid confusion and ensure clarity in reporting.
  Incorrect Query Design: The query or report design may not adhere to the rules set by SAP for key figure definitions, leading to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Key Figure Definitions: Go to the query or report definition and check the key figures that have been included. Ensure that you only have one key figure of category RAK1 or RAV1.
  Modify the Query: If you find multiple key figures of the same category, you will need to remove or replace them with key figures from different categories. 
  Use Different Categories: If you need to display multiple key figures, consider using key figures from different categories (e.g., RAK2, RAV2, etc.) that are allowed in the same report.
  Check for Aggregation: If you are trying to aggregate data, ensure that the aggregation logic is correctly set up and that it does not inadvertently create multiple key figures of the same category.
