  The SAP error message BW_BICS_EQ027 indicates that the query you are trying to execute contains two structures, which is not supported for Easy Query generation. This typically occurs in SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when you are working with queries that involve multiple structures in a way that the Easy Query cannot handle.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Structures: The query is designed with two or more structures (e.g., InfoObjects, characteristics, or key figures) that are not compatible with the Easy Query framework.
  Query Design: The query might have been designed in a way that it requires complex calculations or aggregations that cannot be simplified into an Easy Query format.
  Data Source Limitations: The underlying data source may not support the required structure for the Easy Query.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Query Design: Check the design of the query in the Query Designer. If possible, simplify the query by removing one of the structures or combining them into a single structure.
  Use Standard Query: Instead of using Easy Query, consider using a standard query that can handle multiple structures. This may involve more complex coding or configuration but will allow you to achieve the desired results.
  Modify Data Source: If the data source is causing the issue, consider modifying it to ensure it can support the required structures for the query.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to structure queries properly and avoid this error.
  Check for Updates: Ensure that your SAP BW system is up to date, as newer versions may have improved capabilities for handling complex queries.
