• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HSM_API010 - Numeric value type &1 is not permitted ?

  The SAP error message HSM_API010 with the description "Numeric value type &1 is not permitted" typically occurs in the context of the SAP HANA Smart Data Integration (SDI) or SAP HANA Smart Data Access (SDA) when there is an issue with the data type being used in a numeric context.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Invalid Data Type: The numeric value type specified (represented by &1 in the error message) is not recognized or is not allowed in the context where it is being used. This can happen if the data type is not supported by the operation or function being executed.
  Data Mapping Issues: There may be a mismatch between the expected data type in the target system and the actual data type being provided from the source system.
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration in the data flow or data model that leads to the use of an unsupported numeric type.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  Check Data Types: Review the data types being used in your data model or data flow. Ensure that the numeric types are compatible with the expected types in the target system.
  Data Mapping: If you are using data mapping, ensure that the mappings are correctly defined and that the source data types match the expected target data types.
  Modify Data Types: If you find that the numeric type being used is not supported, consider changing it to a supported type. For example, if you are using a custom numeric type, try converting it to a standard type like INTEGER or FLOAT.
  Review Documentation: Consult the SAP documentation for the specific version of HANA you are using to understand the supported data types and any limitations.
  Test with Sample Data: If possible, test the data flow with a smaller set of sample data to isolate the issue and confirm that the changes you make resolve the error.
