  The SAP error message /BOFU/FBI_DT_VIEW045 Parameter Structure &1 of Query &2/&3/&4 is invalid typically indicates that there is an issue with the parameter structure of a query in the SAP system, particularly in the context of the SAP BusinessObjects or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) environment.
  Cause:
  
  
  Invalid Parameter Structure: The parameter structure specified in the query is not valid. This could be due to a number of reasons, such as:
  
  The parameter structure has been deleted or modified.
  The query is referencing an outdated or incorrect parameter structure.
  There may be inconsistencies in the metadata of the query.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the query or its associated structures were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), there may be inconsistencies or missing objects.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user executing the query may not have the necessary authorizations to access the parameter structure.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Parameter Structure: Verify that the parameter structure referenced in the error message exists and is correctly defined in the system. You can do this by:
  
  Navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., RSA1 for BW) and checking the InfoObjects and queries.
  Ensuring that the parameter structure is active and correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Recreate or Adjust the Query: If the parameter structure is invalid, you may need to recreate the query or adjust it to reference a valid parameter structure.
  
  
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly. You may need to re-transport the relevant objects.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the parameter structure and execute the query. You can check this in the user roles and authorizations.
  
  
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the query execution to identify where the failure occurs. This may require technical expertise in SAP BW or BusinessObjects.
