• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BRAIN266 - MultiProvider &1 is not consistent; input not possible ?

  The SAP error message BRAIN266 indicates that a MultiProvider is not consistent, which means that there is an issue with the underlying InfoProviders that make up the MultiProvider. This inconsistency can prevent users from executing queries or reports that rely on the MultiProvider.

  Inconsistent InfoProviders: The InfoProviders that are part of the MultiProvider may have different characteristics, such as different key figures, characteristics, or data types.
  Data Model Changes: Changes made to the underlying InfoProviders (like adding or removing fields) without updating the MultiProvider can lead to inconsistencies.
