• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message R7B063 - No key figures have been defined ?

  The SAP error message R7B063, which states "No key figures have been defined," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when you are trying to execute a query or report that requires key figures, but none have been defined for the relevant InfoProvider or query.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Key Figures: The most common cause is that the InfoProvider (like an InfoCube or DataStore Object) does not have any key figures defined. Key figures are essential for performing calculations and aggregations in reports.
  Query Design Issues: If you are using a BEx query, it may not have been designed to include any key figures. This can happen if the query is set up incorrectly or if the key figures were inadvertently removed.
  Data Source Issues: The underlying data source may not have been properly configured to include key figures, or the data may not have been loaded correctly.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the key figures, leading to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Define Key Figures:
  
  Go to the InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube or DSO) in the SAP BW modeling tools.
  Check if key figures are defined. If not, you will need to create and define the necessary key figures.
  Ensure that the key figures are properly configured with the correct data types and aggregation settings.
  
  
  
  Check Query Design:
  
  Open the BEx Query Designer and check the query definition.
  Ensure that key figures are included in the query. If they are missing, add the required key figures to the query.
  Validate the query to ensure there are no design issues.
  
  
  
  Data Load Verification:
  
  Check if the data has been loaded into the InfoProvider correctly. You can do this by running a data load monitor or checking the data in the InfoProvider.
  If data is missing, you may need to reload the data from the source system.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the key figures. This can be done by checking the user roles and authorizations in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the query or report again to ensure that the error has been resolved.
