• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QG_EVAL045 - Inconsistent graphic cat.: Syncron. only possible with sorted x-axis ?

  The SAP error message QG_EVAL045 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the graphic category when trying to synchronize the x-axis in a graphical representation (like a chart or graph) in SAP. This typically occurs when the data being visualized is not sorted in a way that allows for synchronization.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The data series plotted on the x-axis is not sorted. For example, if you are trying to synchronize multiple graphs that share the same x-axis, but the x-axis values (like dates, categories, etc.) are not in a consistent order.
  The graphical representation requires a specific order to properly align the data points across different series.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Sort the Data: Ensure that the data for the x-axis is sorted in ascending or descending order. This can often be done in the underlying data source or within the SAP reporting tool you are using.
  
  
  Check Data Consistency: Make sure that all data series that you are trying to synchronize have the same x-axis values and that they are consistent across the different series.
  
  
  Adjust Graph Settings: If you are using a specific graph type, check the settings to ensure that synchronization is enabled and that the x-axis is set up correctly.
  
  
  Recreate the Graph: If the issue persists, consider recreating the graph from scratch, ensuring that you follow the correct steps for sorting and setting up the data.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions related to the version of SAP you are using, as the steps may vary slightly.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Version: The exact steps may vary depending on the version of SAP you are using (e.g., SAP BW, SAP Analytics Cloud, etc.).
  Graph Types: Different types of graphs (bar charts, line charts, etc.) may have different requirements for data sorting and synchronization.
  User Forums: Consider checking SAP community forums or support channels for additional insights or similar issues faced by other users.
  
  By ensuring that your data is sorted and consistent, you should be able to resolve the QG_EVAL045 error and successfully synchronize your x-axis in the graphical representation.
