  The SAP error message /PLMPCV/QRM708 indicates that there is an issue with a query in the SAP system, specifically related to the aggregation of result attributes. The message states that no aggregation function has been selected for a specified result attribute in the query.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  A query is defined without specifying how to aggregate certain result attributes. For example, if you have a numeric field that should be summed or averaged, but no aggregation function (like SUM, AVG, COUNT, etc.) is defined for that field.
  The query is trying to display data that requires aggregation, but the configuration does not include the necessary aggregation functions.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Open the Query Definition: Go to the transaction where the query is defined (e.g., using transaction codes like SQ01 for queries).

  Check Result Attributes: Look at the result attributes in the query definition. Identify the attribute mentioned in the error message (&2).
  
  
  Select Aggregation Function:
  
  For the result attribute that is causing the issue, ensure that you select an appropriate aggregation function. This can usually be done by right-clicking on the attribute and selecting the aggregation function (e.g., SUM, AVG, COUNT).
  If the attribute is not meant to be aggregated, consider whether it should be included in the result set or if it should be treated differently.
  
  
  
  Save and Test the Query: After making the necessary changes, save the query and run it again to see if the error persists.
