  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /EACC/DMM050 - Key figure &1 in the view is not contained in the metadata ?

    The SAP error message /EACC/DMM050 Key figure &1 in the view is not contained in the metadata typically occurs in the context of SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) or SAP BW (Business Warehouse) when there is a mismatch between the key figures defined in a data model or view and those that are available in the metadata.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Key Figure in Metadata: The key figure referenced in the error message is not defined in the metadata of the data model or view. This can happen if the key figure was deleted or not properly included during the model creation or update.
    2. Data Model Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data model (like adding or removing key figures) and the view has not been updated accordingly, this error can occur.
    3. Transport Issues: If the data model or view was transported from one system to another, there might be inconsistencies in the metadata.
    4. Versioning Issues: If you are using different versions of the data model or view, the key figure may exist in one version but not in another.

    Solution:

    1. Check Metadata: Verify that the key figure mentioned in the error message is indeed defined in the metadata of the data model or view. You can do this by checking the data model configuration in SAP BW or SAC.
    2. Update the View: If the key figure is missing, you may need to update the view to include the key figure or remove references to it if it is no longer needed.
    3. Recreate the View: If the view is corrupted or not functioning as expected, consider recreating it from scratch to ensure all key figures are correctly referenced.
    4. Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly and that the target system has the same metadata as the source system.
    5. Refresh Metadata: In some cases, refreshing the metadata in the reporting tool or data model can resolve discrepancies.
