Message type: E = Error
Message class: BRAIN -
Message number: 206
Message text: Formula & uses operands with incompatible dimensions
The operands of formula &V1& do not have the same currency or unit
dimension. This could mean for example that the quantities and amounts,
or amounts and ratios, or the exponents of the currency or unit
dimension are different.
Examples of wrong formulas:
Amount + Quantity (for example $ + kg)
Amount * Amount + Amount (for example $? + $)
When using operator 'IF', the dimension of the condition operand is not
relevant and is not checked.
Check your definition.
If the formula still makes sense, you can hide the dimensionality with
operator 'NODIM'. The system then treats the number as a dimensionless
number.

- Formula & uses operands with incompatible dimensions ?The SAP error message BRAIN206 indicates that there is a problem with a formula in a report or query where the operands being used have incompatible dimensions. This typically occurs in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BPC (Business Planning and Consolidation) when you are trying to perform calculations or aggregations on data that cannot be logically combined due to differing structures or dimensions.
Cause: Incompatible Dimensions: The most common cause is that the formula is trying to operate on two or more data sets that do not share the same dimensions. For example, if you are trying to sum sales data from one region with sales data from another region without a common dimension, this error will occur. Incorrect Formula Syntax: There may be a syntax error in the formula that leads to the system interpreting the operands incorrectly. Data Model Issues: The underlying data model may not be set up correctly, leading
