• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_MKTTG_BW_RSDRCRM208 - Node &1: filters of attribute &2 linked by AND ?

  The SAP error message CRM_MKTTG_BW_RSDRCRM208 typically occurs in the context of SAP CRM (Customer Relationship Management) and SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there are issues related to the filters applied to attributes in a query or report. The message indicates that there are multiple filters applied to a specific attribute, and these filters are linked by an AND condition, which may lead to no results being returned.
  Cause:
  
  Conflicting Filters: The filters applied to the attribute are conflicting, meaning that the conditions set cannot be satisfied simultaneously. For example, if you have a filter for an attribute that requires a value to be both "A" and "B" at the same time, this will lead to no results.
  Data Availability: The data that meets the criteria set by the filters may not exist in the database.
  Incorrect Query Design: The query or report may be incorrectly designed, leading to unintended filter combinations.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Filters: Check the filters applied to the attribute in the query. Ensure that they are not conflicting. If they are, modify the filters to use OR conditions where appropriate or remove unnecessary filters.
  Data Check: Verify that the data you expect to retrieve actually exists in the database. You can do this by running a simpler query without the filters to see if any data is returned.
  Query Redesign: If the query is complex, consider redesigning it to simplify the filter logic. This may involve breaking down the query into smaller parts or using different attributes.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to properly set up filters in your specific context.
