• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IWP328 - Analyze InfoCube: Table &1 has no key figures -> generated as DSO ?

  The SAP error message IWP328 indicates that the InfoCube you are trying to analyze does not contain any key figures, which is a requirement for an InfoCube. Instead, it suggests that the structure of the InfoCube resembles that of a DataStore Object (DSO), which is typically used for storing detailed transactional data rather than aggregated data.
  Cause:
  
  No Key Figures Defined: The InfoCube was created without any key figures, which are essential for performing aggregations and analyses.
  Incorrect Configuration: The InfoCube may have been incorrectly configured or designed, leading to the absence of key figures.
  Data Model Misunderstanding: There may be a misunderstanding of the data model, where the user intended to create a DSO but mistakenly created an InfoCube.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check InfoCube Design: Review the design of the InfoCube in the Data Warehousing Workbench (RSA1). Ensure that key figures are defined in the InfoCube.
  Add Key Figures: If the InfoCube is indeed intended to be an InfoCube, you will need to add key figures. This can be done by:
  
  Going to the InfoCube definition in RSA1.
  Selecting the "Key Figures" tab.
  Adding the necessary key figures that are relevant to your analysis.
  
  
  Recreate the InfoCube: If the InfoCube was incorrectly created and is not meant to have key figures, consider recreating it as a DSO instead.
  Data Model Review: Ensure that the overall data model aligns with your reporting and analytical needs. If the InfoCube is not suitable, consider using a DSO or other data structures.
  
  Related Information:
  
  InfoCube vs. DSO: Understand the differences between InfoCubes and DSOs. InfoCubes are used for multidimensional analysis and require key figures, while DSOs are used for detailed data storage and do not require key figures.
  SAP BW Documentation: Refer to SAP BW documentation for best practices on designing InfoCubes and understanding the requirements for key figures.
  Data Modeling Guidelines: Follow SAP's data modeling guidelines to ensure that your InfoCubes and DSOs are designed correctly for your reporting needs.
  
  By addressing the absence of key figures and ensuring the correct structure is in place, you can resolve the IWP328 error and proceed with your analysis.
