• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BCV/QRM703 - Query &1: No value source was entered for result field &2 ?

  The SAP error message /BCV/QRM703 Query &1: No value source was entered for result field &2 typically occurs in the context of SAP Query or reporting tools when a query is being executed, and the system cannot find a value source for a specified result field. This can happen for various reasons, including configuration issues or missing data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Value Source: The result field specified in the query does not have an associated value source defined. This means that the system does not know where to pull the data from for that particular field.
  Field Configuration: The field may not be properly configured in the query definition, leading to the absence of a value source.
  Data Source Issues: The underlying data source (like a table or view) may not contain the necessary data or may not be accessible.
  Query Definition Errors: There may be errors in the query definition itself, such as incorrect joins or filters that prevent the system from retrieving the necessary data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Query Definition:
  
  Go to the query definition in the SAP Query tool (transaction code SQ01).
  Verify that the result field in question has a valid value source assigned. If not, you will need to assign a proper value source.
  
  
  
  Assign Value Source:
  
  If the field is missing a value source, you can assign it by editing the query and selecting the appropriate data source (like a database table or field) for that result field.
  
  
  
  Review Field Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the field is correctly configured in the query. Check if it is set to display and that it is linked to the correct data source.
  
  
  
  Check Data Source:
  
  Ensure that the underlying data source (table or view) is available and contains the necessary data. You can do this by running a simple SELECT query on the database table to see if it returns data.
  
  
  
  Test the Query:
  
  After making changes, test the query again to see if the error persists. If it does, recheck the configuration and value sources.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration, refer to SAP documentation or consult with a colleague who has experience with SAP Query.
