What causes this issue?

Planning function &V3& of type 'Cost Simulation' (/ERP/SFIN_FT01) is
based on aggregation level &V2&.
An aggregation level used in a planning function of this type can only
have two key figures. One of these acts as the amount key figure and one
of which acts as the allocation factor key figure (see planning function
parameters in transaction RSPLAN).
In addition to those two key figures, the aggregation level &V2& also
contains the key figure &V1&. This is not allowed.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
