• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMPCV/QRM711 - Query &1: Result attribute &2 has attribute type 'Input' ?

  The SAP error message /PLMPCV/QRM711 indicates that there is an issue with a query in the SAP system, specifically related to the attributes being used in the query. The message states that the result attribute specified has an attribute type of 'Input', which typically means that the attribute is not suitable for use as a result in the query.
  Cause:
  
  Attribute Type Misconfiguration: The attribute in question is defined as an 'Input' type, which means it is intended to be used for input parameters rather than as a result output. This can happen if the attribute is incorrectly configured in the system.
  Query Design Issue: The query may have been designed incorrectly, where an input attribute is mistakenly included in the result set.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the underlying data model or attributes may have led to this inconsistency, where an attribute that was previously valid is no longer appropriate for the query.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Attribute Configuration: Review the configuration of the attribute in the SAP system. Ensure that the attribute is set up correctly and is intended to be used as a result attribute. If it is meant to be an output, consider changing its type.
  Modify the Query: If the attribute is correctly configured as an input, you will need to modify the query to remove this attribute from the result set. Instead, use appropriate output attributes that are defined as 'Output' type.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on attribute types and their appropriate usage in queries.
  Testing: After making changes, test the query to ensure that it runs without errors and returns the expected results.
