• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BRAIN053 - Characteristic &1 &2 is not in the InfoProvider. Elimination not possible ?

  The SAP error message BRAIN053 indicates that a specific characteristic (identified by &1 and &2) is not found in the InfoProvider you are working with, which prevents the elimination process from being executed.

  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model (e.g., adding or removing characteristics) may not have been reflected in the query or report.
  Transport Issues: If the InfoProvider was transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the characteristics available.

  Update Query: If the characteristic is not part of the InfoProvider, you may need to modify the query to remove references to that characteristic or replace it with a valid one.
