  • What causes this issue?

    The key figure &V2&[&V1&] has generic aggregation V3&. These types of
    key figures are only released for internal use because they only provide
    consistent results in very specific situations. In this case, &V2& is
    contained in the InfoProvider &V4&, which cannot guarantee the provision
    of non-aggregated data. One example of this provider type is an
    InfoCube. With an InfoCube, the result of &V2&[&V1&] depends on whether
    compression took place or not.

    System Response

    The query cannot use aggregates or database aggregation for this
    InfoProvider (PartProvider). The data is then transferred on the most
    detailed level from the InfoProvider to the OLAP processor.
