• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT328 - Error aggregating node &1: aggregation type is inconsistent ?

  The SAP error message DMEE_PAYMFORMAT328 indicates an issue with the aggregation of nodes in the Data Medium Exchange Engine (DMEE) configuration. This error typically arises when there is an inconsistency in the aggregation type defined for a node in the DMEE tree structure.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Aggregation Types: The error usually occurs when different nodes that are supposed to be aggregated have different aggregation types. For example, if one node is set to aggregate as a sum and another as a count, this inconsistency will trigger the error.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the DMEE tree where the aggregation settings for nodes are not aligned.
  Hierarchy Issues: If the nodes are part of a hierarchy, the parent node may have a different aggregation type than its child nodes.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Aggregation Types: Review the aggregation types set for the nodes involved in the error. Ensure that all nodes that are being aggregated have the same aggregation type.
  Modify DMEE Tree: Go to the DMEE tree structure and check the properties of the nodes. Make sure that the aggregation settings are consistent across all relevant nodes.
  Test Configuration: After making changes, test the DMEE configuration to ensure that the error no longer occurs. You can do this by running a test payment format to see if the aggregation works correctly.
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the correct aggregation types to use, refer to the SAP documentation or consult with a colleague who has experience with DMEE configurations.
