• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BRAIN883 - No exception aggregation in BWA for &1 as no exception aggr. defined ?

  The SAP error message BRAIN883 indicates that there is no exception aggregation defined for a specific InfoObject in the Business Warehouse Accelerator (BWA). This typically occurs when you are trying to perform a query that requires exception aggregation, but the necessary configuration has not been set up in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Lack of Exception Aggregation Definition: The primary cause of this error is that the InfoObject (denoted by &1 in the error message) does not have any exception aggregation defined in the data model.
  Query Configuration: The query you are trying to execute may be attempting to use exception aggregation on a characteristic that has not been configured to support it.
  Data Model Issues: There may be issues with the data model or the way the InfoObject is set up in the InfoProvider.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Exception Aggregation:
  
  Go to the relevant InfoObject in the SAP BW system.
  Navigate to the "Aggregation" settings.
  Define the necessary exception aggregation for the InfoObject. This involves specifying how the system should handle exceptions for this characteristic during aggregation.
  
  
  
  Check Query Design:
  
  Review the query that is causing the error. Ensure that it is correctly configured to use exception aggregation only on those InfoObjects that have it defined.
  If the query is incorrectly set up, modify it to avoid using exception aggregation for the InfoObject in question.
  
  
  
  Rebuild the BWA Index:
  
  If changes have been made to the InfoObject or the query, it may be necessary to rebuild the BWA index to ensure that the changes are reflected in the BWA.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed steps on how to define exception aggregation for specific InfoObjects.
