• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QECOPY052 - No single-value recording possible for calculated charc &1 of lot &2 ?

  The SAP error message QECOPY052 indicates that there is an issue with the recording of a calculated characteristic for a specific lot in the Quality Management (QM) module. This error typically arises when the system attempts to record a value for a characteristic that is calculated based on other characteristics, but it cannot do so because the characteristic is not defined as a single-value characteristic.
  Cause:
  
  Calculated Characteristic: The characteristic in question is a calculated characteristic, which means its value is derived from other characteristics rather than being directly input by the user.
  Single-Value Requirement: The system expects a single value for the characteristic, but since it is calculated, it cannot accept a direct input.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the characteristics in the Quality Management module, particularly how the calculated characteristic is set up.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Characteristic Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the characteristics in the Quality Management module.
  Ensure that the calculated characteristic is correctly defined and that it is set up to derive its value from the appropriate source characteristics.
  
  
  
  Review Lot Data:
  
  Check the lot data for the specific lot mentioned in the error message. Ensure that all necessary source characteristics have valid values that can be used for the calculation.
  
  
  
  Adjust Recording Method:
  
  If the characteristic is intended to be recorded, consider whether it should be set up as a non-calculated characteristic instead, or if the recording method needs to be adjusted to accommodate the calculated nature of the characteristic.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to Quality Management and characteristic configuration for further guidance on how to handle calculated characteristics.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes and Support:
  
  Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional insights into resolving it.
  If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Quality Management (QM): This module in SAP is used for managing quality in production processes, including inspections, quality control, and compliance.
  Characteristics: In SAP QM, characteristics can be defined as either single-value or multiple-value, and they can be either input by users or calculated based on other characteristics.
  Calculated Characteristics: These are typically used to derive values based on formulas or rules defined in the system, and they cannot be manually entered.
  
  By following the above steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
