SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: BRAIN_DEV - BRAIN messages (for use by development)

• Message number: 047

• Message text: Element &4: Stock coverage not compatible with mandatory char. &1

What causes this issue?

Element &V4& contains stock coverage key figure &V2& with time
characteristic &V3& (exception aggregation reference characteristic) and
characteristic &V1& is used as the reference characteristic of a
(formula) exception aggregation in this element.
Characteristic &V1& is incompatible with characteristic &V3&, because a
value of &V1& cannot normally be uniquely derived from a value of &V3&.
This is necessary because the (formula) exception aggregation is applied
to the stock coverage key figure.
