• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS_DME_ABC035 - Prediction fields are not allowed to be of data type &1 ?

  The SAP error message RS_DME_ABC035 indicates that there is an issue with the data type of prediction fields in the context of the Data Mining Extension (DME) in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error typically arises when the data type of a field that is being used for prediction does not meet the requirements set by the DME.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when:
  
  A field designated for prediction is of an unsupported data type. For example, certain data types like complex structures or unsupported numeric types may not be allowed.
  The prediction model is expecting specific data types (e.g., numeric, character) but receives a different type.
  
  Solution:

  Check Data Types: Review the data types of the fields you are using in your prediction model. Ensure that they conform to the expected types. Commonly supported types include:
  
  Numeric (e.g., INTEGER, DECIMAL)

  Modify Data Types: If you find that a field is of an unsupported data type, consider changing its data type in the underlying data source or transformation process. This may involve:
  
  Adjusting the data model in the InfoObject or DataSource.
  Using a transformation to convert the data type to a supported format.
  
  
  
  Review Prediction Model Configuration: Ensure that the configuration of your prediction model is correct and that all fields are appropriately defined.
  
  
  Test with Sample Data: After making changes, test the prediction model with a small set of data to ensure that the error does not recur.
