Message text: Check whether the formula for key figure &1 makes sense
The formula of this key figure is not correct. The formula was checked
using the following rules:
Each key figure has a quantity number Q and a currency number C.
Each basic key figure either has quantity Q = 1 and currency C = 0 or
quantity Q = 0 and currency C = 1.
Each constant has C = 0 and Q = 0.
Example: Basic key figure 'sales quantity' has quantity Q = 1 and
currency C = 0. Basic key figure 'revenue' has quantity Q = 0 and
currency C = 1.
Key figures are checked by testing the formula in formula levels with
one or two place operators.
The two place operators are checked to see whether the quantity and
currency numbers are compatible with the operators.
Each formula level has a quantity number and a currency number.
Operators such as 'SIN' and 'COS' are distinguished from the others.
If one formula level in a key figure is distinguished from the others,
the whole key figure is too.
The compatibility of quantity figures and currency figures is checked
on the basis of the following table, where Q1 is the quantity number
and C1 the currency number of the first operand and Q2 the quantity
number and C2 the currency number of the second operand. Q is the
quantity number and C the currency number of the current formula level.

KX443
- Check whether the formula for key figure &1 makes sense ?The SAP error message KX443, which states "Check whether the formula for key figure &1 makes sense," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BPC (Business Planning and Consolidation) when there is an issue with a calculated key figure's formula. This error indicates that the formula defined for the key figure is either incorrect or not logically valid. Causes: Syntax Errors: There may be a syntax error in the formula, such as missing operators, incorrect function usage, or invalid references to other key figures. Invalid Key Figure References: The formula may reference key figures that do not exist or are not available in the context of the calculation. Division by Zero: If the formula involves division, it may lead to a division by zero scenario, which is not allowed. Data Type Mismatch: The formula may involve operations between incompatible data types (e.g., trying to add a string to a number). Logical
