• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_B4HANA_RC122 - Query is semantically incorrect. ?

  The SAP error message "RS_B4HANA_RC122 Query is semantically incorrect" typically occurs in the context of SAP BW/4HANA or SAP BW on HANA when there is an issue with the semantic structure of a query. This can happen for various reasons, including incorrect or missing characteristics, measures, or filters in the query definition.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Characteristics or Key Figures: The query may reference characteristics or key figures that are not available in the underlying data model or InfoProvider.
  Incorrect Joins: If the query involves multiple InfoProviders, there may be issues with how they are joined or related.
  Invalid Filters: Filters applied in the query may not be valid due to changes in the underlying data model.
  Aggregation Issues: If the query is trying to aggregate data in a way that is not supported by the underlying data model, it can lead to this error.
  Data Source Changes: Changes in the data source (like changes in the InfoObject or InfoProvider) that are not reflected in the query definition can cause semantic issues.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Query Definition: Review the query definition in the Query Designer. Ensure that all characteristics and key figures are correctly defined and available in the underlying data model.
  Validate Filters: Check any filters applied to the query. Make sure they are valid and correspond to existing characteristics in the data model.
  Review Joins: If the query involves multiple InfoProviders, ensure that the joins are correctly defined and that the relationships between the InfoProviders are valid.
  Test with Simplified Query: Try running a simplified version of the query to isolate the issue. Start with fewer characteristics and measures, and gradually add them back to identify the problematic element.
  Check for Data Source Changes: If there have been recent changes to the data source or InfoProvider, ensure that the query is updated accordingly.
  Use Query Monitor: Utilize the Query Monitor (transaction RSRT) to analyze the query execution and identify any specific issues that may be causing the error.
