• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CPOC148 - No characteristic data were passed on. Processing is not possible ?

  The SAP error message CPOC148 ("No characteristic data were passed on. Processing is not possible") typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when there is an issue with the data being processed in a query or report. This error indicates that the system did not receive any characteristic data that it expected to process, which can prevent the execution of the query or report.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Data: The query or report may not have any data available for the characteristics being queried. This can happen if the data source is empty or if the selection criteria filter out all records.
  Incorrect Query Design: The query may be incorrectly designed, leading to a situation where no characteristics are being passed to the processing logic.
  Data Source Issues: There may be issues with the underlying data source, such as problems with the InfoProvider or the data model.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the data, resulting in no data being returned.
  Technical Issues: There could be technical issues with the SAP system, such as problems with the data extraction process or the data model.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Availability: Verify that there is data available in the InfoProvider for the characteristics being queried. You can do this by running a simple query or report that retrieves data without any filters.
  Review Query Design: Examine the query design in the Query Designer to ensure that the characteristics are correctly defined and that there are no filters that would exclude all data.
  Validate Data Source: Check the underlying data source (e.g., InfoCube, DataStore Object) to ensure that it is populated with data and that there are no issues with the data load process.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the query has the necessary authorizations to access the data. You can check this in the user roles and authorizations.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the query execution to identify where the data is being lost or not passed on. This may require technical expertise in SAP BW/BI.
  Consult SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may address this specific error message or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
