• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_CP_MSG006 - Property '&1' supports filter sign 'I' only ?

  The SAP error message FDT_CP_MSG006 indicates that a property in a filter condition is being used incorrectly. Specifically, it states that the property '&1' supports the filter sign 'I' (which stands for "Include") only. This means that the property is not designed to work with other filter signs, such as 'E' (Exclude) or 'N' (Not Equal).
  Cause:
  The error typically arises in the context of using the SAP Fiori Design Time (FDT) or when working with filter conditions in a data model where certain properties are restricted to specific filter operations. The property in question is likely defined in a way that it can only be included in the results, and any attempt to use it with other filter signs will trigger this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Check the Property Definition: Review the definition of the property in the data model or the context where the filter is being applied. Ensure that you are using the correct filter sign that is supported by the property.
  
  
  Modify the Filter Condition: If you are using a filter condition with a sign other than 'I', change it to 'I'. For example, if you have a filter condition like Property = Value, change it to Property IN (Value) or simply use the 'I' sign.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or the data model documentation to understand the properties and their supported filter signs. This will help you avoid similar issues in the future.
  
  
  Test the Changes: After making the necessary adjustments, test the filter condition to ensure that it works as expected without triggering the error.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Fiori Elements: If you are working with SAP Fiori applications, understanding how to define and use annotations correctly is crucial, as they dictate how filters and properties behave.

  SAP Community: If you continue to face issues, consider reaching out to the SAP Community or forums where other users may have encountered and resolved similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that your filter conditions are correctly configured.
