• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KH075 - The column/key figure sequence has been changed ?

  The SAP error message KH075, which states "The column/key figure sequence has been changed," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Controlling (CO) module, particularly when dealing with reports or planning layouts in the Profitability Analysis (CO-PA) or other CO-related reports.
  Cause:
  This error usually arises when there is a mismatch between the expected sequence of columns or key figures in a report layout and the actual sequence that is currently defined in the system. This can happen due to:
  
  Changes in Report Layout: If the report layout has been modified (e.g., columns added, removed, or reordered) and the changes have not been properly saved or activated.
  Transport Issues: If the report layout was transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production) and the transport did not include all necessary components or configurations.
  User-Specific Settings: If a user has specific settings that differ from the standard layout, leading to discrepancies when the report is executed.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the KH075 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Report Layout:
  
  Go to the report layout settings and verify that the column/key figure sequence matches the expected configuration.
  If changes were made, ensure that they are saved and activated.
  
  
  
  Reset User-Specific Settings:
  
  If the issue is user-specific, try resetting the user settings for the report. This can often be done by deleting the user-specific layout or using the standard layout.
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the report layout was recently transported, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary components were included and that there were no errors during the transport process.
  
  
  
  Recreate the Layout:
  
  If the layout is corrupted or cannot be fixed, consider recreating the report layout from scratch.
