• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BRAIN_DEV650 - No exception aggregation in HANA/BWA due to CURRENT MEMBER variable ?

  The SAP error message BRAIN_DEV650 indicates that there is an issue with exception aggregation in HANA or BWA (Business Warehouse Accelerator) due to the use of a CURRENT MEMBER variable in your query. This error typically arises when you are trying to perform an aggregation operation that is not compatible with the CURRENT MEMBER context.
  Cause:
  The error occurs because the CURRENT MEMBER variable is used in a context where exception aggregation is expected. Exception aggregation is a method of aggregating data that allows for exceptions to be handled differently than standard aggregation. However, when CURRENT MEMBER is involved, it can lead to ambiguity in how the data should be aggregated, resulting in this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve the BRAIN_DEV650 error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Query: Check the query that is causing the error. Look for the use of CURRENT MEMBER variables and assess whether they are necessary for your aggregation logic.
  
  
  Modify the Query: If possible, modify the query to avoid using CURRENT MEMBER in contexts where exception aggregation is required. You may need to rewrite parts of the query to achieve the desired results without using CURRENT MEMBER.
  
  
  Use Alternative Variables: Instead of CURRENT MEMBER, consider using other variables or methods to achieve the same result without triggering the error. For example, you might use specific member references or other aggregation techniques.
  
  
  Check Aggregation Settings: Ensure that the aggregation settings in your InfoProvider or query are correctly configured. Sometimes, adjusting these settings can help resolve compatibility issues.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or the SAP Community for specific guidance on exception aggregation and the use of CURRENT MEMBER in your version of SAP BW or HANA.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, test the query to ensure that it runs without errors and returns the expected results.
