• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_TRACE_INFO098 - Boolean operation &1 evaluated to &2; inverted to &3 ?

  The SAP error message FDT_TRACE_INFO098 indicates that a Boolean operation in a formula or expression has been evaluated, and the result has been inverted. This message is typically related to the use of the Formula Design Tool (FDT) in SAP, which is used for creating and managing formulas in various SAP applications.
  Cause:
  The error message is generated when a Boolean expression is evaluated, and the result is inverted. The message provides the following information:
  
  &1: The Boolean operation that was evaluated.
  &2: The result of the evaluation before inversion.
  &3: The result after inversion.
  
  This can occur due to:
  
  Incorrect logic in the formula or expression.
  Misconfiguration of the conditions or parameters being evaluated.
  A misunderstanding of how the Boolean operations are intended to work.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review the Formula: Check the formula or expression where the error is occurring. Ensure that the logic is correct and that the intended Boolean operations are being used properly.
  
  
  Check Conditions: Verify the conditions being evaluated in the formula. Make sure that they are set up correctly and that they reflect the intended logic.
  
  
  Debugging: Use debugging tools available in SAP to trace the execution of the formula. This can help identify where the logic may be going wrong.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources related to the Formula Design Tool for guidance on how to properly structure Boolean expressions.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, test the formula with various inputs to ensure that it behaves as expected and that the error message no longer appears.
  
  
  Seek Help: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with a colleague who has experience with FDT.
