  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message APS_CKE_PARSER077 - For non-numeric field &1 no aggregation is possible. Please select None. ?

    The SAP error message APS_CKE_PARSER077 indicates that there is an issue with trying to perform an aggregation operation on a non-numeric field in a query or report. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when you are attempting to aggregate data that is not suitable for aggregation (e.g., text fields or other non-numeric data types).

    Cause:

    1. Non-Numeric Field: The field you are trying to aggregate is of a non-numeric data type (e.g., character, string, date).
    2. Aggregation Function: You may have selected an aggregation function (like SUM, AVG, etc.) that is not applicable to the data type of the selected field.
    3. Query Design: The query or report design may have incorrectly included a non-numeric field in a context where aggregation is expected.

    Solution:

    1. Check Field Type: Verify the data type of the field you are trying to aggregate. Ensure that it is a numeric type (e.g., integer, decimal).
    2. Change Aggregation: If the field is indeed non-numeric, you should either:
      • Remove the aggregation function from that field.
      • Change the field to a numeric field if applicable (this may require data transformation).
    3. Select None: As the error message suggests, you can select "None" for the aggregation option for that specific field if aggregation is not meaningful for it.
    4. Modify Query: If you are using a query designer, modify the query to ensure that only numeric fields are included in aggregation operations.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more details on data types and aggregation functions.
    • Data Modeling: Ensure that your data model is correctly defined, with appropriate data types assigned to each field.
    • Testing: After making changes, test the query or report to ensure that it runs without errors and produces the expected results.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with a technical expert who can provide further assistance based on your specific SAP environment and configuration.
