Message text: Aggregation over time is not possible for special periods
You specified an aggregation rule that requires the number of calendar
or factory calendar days for each period to be calculable (either
"Average weighted by calendar days" or "Average weighted by factory
calendar days).
The system determined that the reporting period includes special
periods that do not permit this.
For key figures with the aggregation rule "Average by calendar days" or
"Average by factory calendar days", you need to change the timeframe
you want to analyze so that it only contains normal posting periods.
